LDL-Receptor Related Protein 2
Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein-2 | Megalin | Antigen GP 330, Nephritis | GP330 Antigen | Glycoprotein 330 | Heyman' | s Nephritis Antigen GP330 | Heymann Nephritis Antigen GP330 | LRP-2 | LRP-2 Receptor | LRP 2 | LRP 2 Receptor
A LDL-RECEPTOR RELATED PROTEIN found in the neuroepithelium and in proximal tubular cells of the kidney. It is considered a multiligand receptor in that it binds to a variety of ligands with relatively high affinity and may function in mediating the uptake and lysosomal degradation of macromolecules such as: LIPOPROTEINS, ENDOPEPTIDASES and PROTEASE INHIBITORS. |
