low density lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein-2 - CISMeF
Low density lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein-2MeSH Descriptor
Preferred Label : low density lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein-2;
MeSH definition : An LDL-RECEPTOR RELATED PROTEIN found in the neuroepithelium and in proximal tubular
cells of the kidney. It is considered a multiligand receptor in that it binds to a
variety of ligands with relatively high affinity and may function in mediating the
uptake and lysosomal degradation of macromolecules such as: LIPOPROTEINS; ENDOPEPTIDASES;
and PROTEASE INHIBITORS.;
MeSH synonym : glycoprotein gp330, renal; gp330 antigen; heymann nephritis antigen gp330; lrp 2 receptor; renal glycoprotein gp330; glycoprotein 330; heyman's nephritis antigen gp330; lrp-2 receptor; megalin; nephritis antigen (gp330); gp330, renal glycoprotein; antigen gp 330, nephritis; LDL-Receptor related protein 2; LDL receptor related protein 2; low density lipoprotein receptor related protein 2; Low-Density lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein-2;
CISMeF synonym : lrp-2; lrp 2;
MeSH annotation : note entry term Heymann Nephritis Antigen GP330: HEYMANN NEPHRITIS ANTIGENIC COMPLEX
