Human Gene LRP1 (ENST00000338962.8) from GENCODE V44
Description: Endocytic receptor involved in endocytosis and in phagocytosis of apoptotic cells. Required for early embryonic development. Involved in cellular lipid homeostasis. Involved in the plasma clearance of chylomicron remnants and activated LRPAP1 (alpha 2-macroglobulin), as well as the local metabolism of complexes between plasminogen activators and their endogenous inhibitors. May modulate cellular events, such as APP metabolism, kinase-dependent intracellular signaling, neuronal calcium signaling as well as neurotransmission. (from UniProt Q07954) RefSeq Summary (NM_002332): This gene encodes a member of the low-density lipoprotein receptor family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed by furin to generate 515 kDa and 85 kDa subunits that form the mature receptor (PMID: 8546712). This receptor is involved in several cellular processes, including intracellular signaling, lipid homeostasis, and clearance of apoptotic cells. In addition, the encoded protein is necessary for the alpha 2-macroglobulin-mediated clearance of secreted amyloid precursor protein and beta-amyloid, the main component of amyloid plaques found in Alzheimer patients. Expression of this gene decreases with age and has been found to be lower than controls in brain tissue from Alzheimer's disease patients. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015].

Required for early embryonic development. Involved in cellular lipid homeostasis. Involved in the plasma clearance of chylomicron remnants and activated LRPAP1 (alpha 2-macroglobulin), as well as the local metabolism of complexes between plasminogen activators and their endogenous inhibitors. May modulate cellular events, such as APP metabolism, kinase-dependent intracellular signaling, neuronal calcium signaling as well as neurotransmission. FUNCTION: Functions as a receptor for Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A. SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of an 85-kDa membrane-bound carboxyl subunit and a non-covalently attached 515-kDa N-terminal subunit. Intracellular domain interacts with MAFB (By similarity). Found in a complex with PID1/PCLI1, LRP1 and CUBNI. Interacts with SNX17, PID1/PCLI1, PDGF and CUBN. The intracellular domain interacts with SHC1, GULP1 and DAB1. Interacts with LRPAP1. Can weakly interact (via NPXY motif) with DAB2 (via PID domain); the interaction is enhanced by tyrosine phosphorylation of the NPXY motif. Interacts with bacterial exotoxins. INTERACTION: Q63722:Jag1 (xeno); NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-1046087, EBI-4567800; Q03350:Thbs2 (xeno); NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-1046087, EBI-4567830; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 85 kDa subunit: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Membrane, coated pit. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 515 kDa subunit: Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Extracellular side. Membrane, coated pit. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 intracellular domain: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=After cleavage, the intracellular domain (LRPICD) is detected both in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Most abundant in liver, brain and lung. PTM: Cleaved into a 85 kDa membrane-spanning subunit (LRP-85) and a 515 kDa large extracellular domain (LRP-515) that remains non- covalently associated. Gamma-secretase-dependent cleavage of LRP- 85 releases the intracellular domain from the membrane. PTM: The N-terminus is blocked. PTM: Phosphorylated on serine and threonine residues. PTM: Phosphorylated on tyrosine residues upon stimulation with PDGF. Tyrosine phosphorylation promotes interaction with SHC1. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the LDLR family. SIMILARITY: Contains 22 EGF-like domains. SIMILARITY: Contains 31 LDL-receptor class A domains. SIMILARITY: Contains 34 LDL-receptor class B repeats.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
