LRP2 Binding Protein (LRP2BP)
other names：Low Density Lipoprotein-Related Protein 2 Binding Protein
LRP2BP May act as an adapter that regulates LRP2 function. Interacts with LRP2. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
LRP2 is a multi-ligand endocytic receptor that is expressed in many different tissues but primarily in absorptive epithilial tissues such as the kidney. This glycoprotein has a large amino-terminal extracellular domain, a single transmembrane domain, and a short carboxy-terminal cytoplasmic tail. The extracellular ligand-binding-domains bind diverse macromolecules including albumin, apolipoproteins B and E, and lipoprotein lipase. The LRP2 protein is critical for the reuptake of numerous ligands, including lipoproteins, sterols, vitamin-binding proteins, and hormones.
