Anatomical context of LRP2

  • Ligand blotting of rabbit kidney cortex with rabbit 125I-TC-B12 and human TC-57Co-B12 revealed an exclusive binding to megalin, a 600-kDa endocytic receptor present in renal proximal tubule epithelium and other absorptive epithelia [8].
  • 125I-TC-B12 was efficiently endocytosed in a RAP-inhibitable manner in megalin-expressing rat yolk sac carcinoma cells and in vivo microperfused rat proximal tubules [8].
  • Megalin is the major receptor in absorptive epithelial cells of the proximal tubules and an antigenic determinant for Heymann nephritis in rats [9].
  • Several cultured cell lines that express gp330 and ones that do not express the receptor were examined for their ability to bind and internalize 125I-apoJ [10].
  • To identify ligands specific for gp330 and relevant to its localization on epithelia such as in the mammary gland, gp330-Sepharose affinity chromatography was performed [10].
 

Associations of LRP2 with chemical compounds

 

Physical interactions of LRP2

  • In this report, we tested several other LRP ligands for their ability to interact with human and rat gp330 in vitro [15].
  • However, we found that gp330 (purified from human or rat) bound the lipolytic enzyme lipoprotein lipase (LPL) with high affinity (Kd = 6.1 and 2.7 nM, respectively) [15].
  • The binding of beta2-glycoprotein-I and beta2-glycoprotein-I- phospholipid complexes to megalin was completely blocked by receptor-associated protein [12].
  • Circulating thyroglobulin transcytosed by thyroid cells in complexed with secretory components of its endocytic receptor megalin [16].
  • Taken together, these findings indicate that a significant pool of NHE3 exists as a multimeric complex with megalin in the brush border of the proximal tubule [17].
 

Regulatory relationships of LRP2

 

Other interactions of LRP2

  • We recently demonstrated that gp330 and LRP may be functionally related as well; both bind the 39-kDa polypeptide referred to as receptor-associated protein (Kounnas, M. Z., Argraves, W. S., and Strickland, D. K. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 21162-21166) [15].
  • Identification of glycoprotein 330 as an endocytic receptor for apolipoprotein J/clusterin [10].
  • The findings support the possibility that LRP-2 can act in vivo to mediate clearance of the complex from biological fluids such as cerebrospinal fluid and thereby play a role in the regulation of Abeta accumulation [21].
  • This autoantibody may modulate the function of CD69- and LRP2-expressing cells [1].
  • These findings indicate that gp330, like other LDLR family members, mediates endocytosis of its ligands [22].
