Other Information

**Key Characteristics** ASGR2 is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein, consisting of an extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular domain. The extracellular domain contains two binding sites for fucose and mannose, which are essential for the receptor's ligand recognition and binding. The transmembrane domain spans the cell membrane, while the intracellular domain contains a tyrosine kinase domain, which is involved in signaling pathways. ASGR2 has a high degree of specificity for its ligands, including asialoglycoproteins, which are glycoproteins that have been partially deglycosylated. The receptor's binding affinity is influenced by the presence of specific sugars, such as fucose and mannose, which are present on the surface of glycoproteins. **Pathways and Functions** ASGR2 plays a critical role in the regulation of protein metabolism, immune responses, and the clearance of pathogens. The receptor's primary function is to mediate the endocytosis of asialoglycoproteins, which are glycoproteins that have been partially deglycosylated. This process involves the binding of the receptor to its ligands, followed by the internalization of the glycoprotein into the cell. ASGR2 has been implicated in various signaling pathways, including the PI3K/Akt and MAPK/ERK pathways, which are involved in cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation. The receptor's ability to bind to specific sugars also enables it to regulate the activity of immune cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells. **Clinical Significance** ASGR2 has been implicated in various diseases, including liver disease, cancer, and immune disorders. The receptor's ability to bind to specific sugars has been exploited in the development of therapeutic strategies for the treatment of these diseases. For example, ASGR2 has been shown to play a critical role in the clearance of hepatocellular carcinoma cells from the circulation. The receptor's ability to bind to specific sugars has been targeted in the development of therapeutic agents, such as ASG-2, which has been shown to inhibit ASGR2 activity and induce the clearance of cancer cells. Additionally, ASGR2 has been implicated in the regulation of immune responses, particularly in the context of autoimmune diseases. The receptor's ability to bind to specific sugars has been shown to regulate the activity of immune cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells, and has been targeted in the development of therapeutic strategies for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. In conclusion, ASGR2 is a critical component of the immune system, playing a key role in the clearance of glycoproteins from the circulation and regulating protein metabolism, immune responses, and the clearance of pathogens. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, including liver disease, cancer, and immune disorders, and has been targeted in the development of therapeutic strategies for the treatment of these diseases.
