name: insulin receptor recycling
namespace: biological_process
def: "The process that results in the return of an insulin receptor to an active state at the plasma membrane. An active state is when the receptor is ready to receive an insulin signal. Internalized insulin receptors can be recycled to the plasma membrane or sorted to lysosomes for protein degradation." [GOC:bf, GOC:signaling, PMID:3907718]
