Protein nameLow density lipoprotein receptor
Low density lipoprotein
Low-density lipoprotein receptor
Low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDL receptor)
LDLR
Synonyms
DescriptionFUNCTION: Binds low density lipoprotein /LDL, the major cholesterol-carrying lipoprotein of plasma, and transports it into cells by endocytosis. In order to be internalized, the receptor-ligand complexes must first cluster into clathrin-coated pits. Forms a ternary complex with PGRMC1 and TMEM97 receptors which increases LDLR-mediated LDL internalization . .; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for hepatitis C virus in hepatocytes, but not through a direct interaction with viral proteins. .; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Vesicular stomatitis virus. .; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) In case of HIV-1 infection, may function as a receptor for extracellular Tat in neurons, mediating its internalization in uninfected cells. .
