Vectors for Human LDLR

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol LDLR
  • Species Human (Homo sapiens)
  • Offical Full Name low density lipoprotein receptor
  • Other Aliases FH; FHC; FHCL1; LDLCQ2
  • Other Desigations low-density lipoprotein receptor; LDL receptor; low-density lipoprotein receptor class A domain-containing protein 3
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    The low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene family consists of cell surface proteins involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis of specific ligands. The encoded protein is normally bound at the cell membrane, where it binds low density lipoprotein/cholesterol and is taken into the cell. Lysosomes release the cholesterol, which is made available for repression of microsomal enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG CoA) reductase, the rate-limiting step in cholesterol synthesis. At the same time, a reciprocal stimulation of cholesterol ester synthesis takes place. Mutations in this gene cause the autosomal dominant disorder, familial hypercholesterolemia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2022]
