低密度脂蛋白受體
低密度脂蛋白受體(Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) Receptor),又稱LDL受體,為一種膜鑲嵌式蛋白質,全長有839個胺基酸(扣掉21胺基酸長的訊息肽)[1]。本受體調控低密度脂蛋白(LDL)的胞吞作用。此種受體專門辨認LDL顆粒上的B100脂蛋白,也可辨認乳糜微粒殘體及中間密度脂蛋白(IDL,極低密度脂蛋白的殘體)上的Apo E。人體LDL受體的基因編碼為LDLR基因[2][3]。屬於低密度脂蛋白受體家族[4]。
Michael S. Brown和Joseph L. Goldstein即因發現LDL受體,以及其與膽固醇代謝的關係[5],而獲得1985年諾貝爾生理醫學獎[6]。
臨床價值
功能
LDL-膽固醇會和銜接蛋白(adaptin)結合,並在細胞膜中格形蛋白(clathrin)圍住的孔洞中,與LDL受體結合成「LDL受體複合物」。此時,格形蛋白會將LDL-膽固醇吞噬入細胞內,形成囊泡。
突變
- 1類: LDLR沒有完全合成.
- 2類: LDLR沒有正常地從內質網轉運至高爾基體並在細胞表面表達。
- 3類: LDLR沒有正常地在細胞表面與LDL結合,因為載脂蛋白B100(R3500Q)或LDL-R內部有缺陷。
- 4類: LDLR與LDL結合時沒有正常地聚集在網格蛋白包被進行受體介導的內吞作用(途徑中的步驟2)。
- 5類: LDLR沒有被正常地回收至細胞表面(途徑中的步驟5)。
