Abstract excerpt
The human lipoprotein receptor related protein (LRP) binds and internalizes a diverse set of ligands, making LRP the most multifunctional endocytic receptor known. This is possible due to the large size, i.e., 600 kDa, of the receptor protein containing three clusters of putative ligand binding d...
