Description
LowDensity Lipoprotein ReceptorRelated Protein 12 (LRP12) belongs to the LDLR family. LRP12 is a type I transmembrane protein annd widely expressed in heart, skeletal muscle, brain, lung, placenta and pancreas. LRP12 contains 2 CUB domain and 5 LDLreceptor class A domain. LRP12 has been shown to interact with GNB2L1, ZFYVE9 and ITGB1BP3. LRP12 is a receptor probably, which may be involved in the internalization of lipophilic molecules and/or signal transduction. In addition, LRP12 may act as a tumor suppressor
