Preferred Label : Cation-Independent Mannose-6 Phosphate Receptor;

NCIt synonyms : IGF2R; Insulin-Like Growth Factor-2 Receptor; MPR 300; M6PR; CI Man-6-P Receptor; Antigen CD222; Insulin-Like Growth Factor II Receptor; M6P/IGF2R; IGF-II Receptor; CD222; Insulin-Like Growth Factor 2 Receptor; 300 kDa Mannose 6-Phosphate Receptor; CI-MPR; M6P/IGF2 Receptor; CD222 Antigen;

NCIt definition : Cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor (2491 aa, 274 kDa) is encoded by the human IGF2R gene. This protein is involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis.;

NCIt note : IGF2R is a 250kDa transmembrane protein. It was originally identified as a receptor for IGFII and M6P-containing proteins (e.g. lysosomal hydrolases). Lysosomal enzymes are sorted to lysosomes via IGF2R either from the Golgi, where the enzymes acquire M6P, or from the extracellular space. The majority of IGF2R molecules are located intracellularly, only 5-10% is present on the cell membrane. IGF2R is also a receptor for TGFbeta latency associated peptide (LAP), proliferin and may bind several molecules independently of M6P, including plasminogen, CD87 or retinoic acid. It is involved in activation of latent TGFbeta. It is a putative hepatocellular tumor suppressor. (from LocusLink);
