Mouse Very‐Low‐Density‐Lipoprotein Receptor (VLDLR) cDNA Cloning, Tissue‐specific Expression and Evolutionary Relationship with the Low‐density‐lipoprotein Receptor

Abstract excerpt

The very-low-density-lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR) is a recently described lipoprotein receptor that shows considerable similarity to the low-density-lipoprotein receptor (LDLR). This receptor has been suggested to be important for the metabolism of apoprotein-E-containing triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins, such as very-low-density-lipoprotein (VLDL), beta-migrating VLDL and intermediate-density lipoprotein. cDNA...
