Lysosomal integral membrane protein-2: a new player in lysosome-related pathology.

Molecular genetics and metabolism - 1 Feb 2014

Gonzalez Ashley, Valeiras Mark, Sidransky Ellen, Tayebi Nahid

Abstract excerpt

Lysosomes require the presence of many specialized proteins to facilitate their roles in cellular maintenance. One such protein that has proven to be an important player in the lysosomal field is lysosomal integral membrane protein-2 (LIMP-2), encoded by the gene SCARB2. LIMP-2 is required for the normal biogenesis and maintenance of lysosomes and endosomes and has been identified as the specific receptor for...
