Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * LDLR is a single-pass transmembrane protein with a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. * It is expressed in a variety of cell types, including endothelial cells, macrophages, and hepatocytes. * LDLR is a high-affinity receptor for LDL particles. * It is a member of the LDL receptor family of cell surface receptors. * When LDLR binds to LDL, it triggers the internalization of the LDL particle into a clathrin-coated vesicle for degradation. **Pathways and functions:** * LDLR is involved in the uptake of LDL particles from the bloodstream. * It is also involved in the clearance of LDL particles from the liver. * LDLR is a key regulator of cholesterol homeostasis. * It is involved in the regulation of inflammation and atherosclerosis. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the LDLR gene have been linked to the development of atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases. * The LDLR gene is a potential target for the treatment of these diseases. **Additional information:** * The LDLR gene is located on chromosome 15q21.1. * It is expressed in high levels in the liver, kidneys, and macrophages. * It is a highly conserved protein, with a similar gene found in humans, mice, and rats.
