Low Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein-2

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: An 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.  note entry term Heymann Nephritis Antigen GP330: HEYMANN NEPHRITIS ANTIGENIC COMPLEX is also available    Other names Low Density Lipoprotein Receptor Related Protein 2; LRP 2 Receptor; LDL Receptor Related Protein 2; Glycoprotein GP330, Renal; GP330, Renal Glycoprotein; Renal Glycoprotein GP330; Nephritis Antigen (GP330); LRP-2 Receptor; Heymann Nephritis Antigen GP330; Heyman's Nephritis Antigen GP330; Glycoprotein 330; Antigen GP 330, Nephritis; GP330 Antigen; Megalin; Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein-2; LDL-Receptor Related Protein 2
