General annotation (Comments)

Function

Binds LDL, the major cholesterol-carrying lipoprotein of plasma, and transports it into cells by endocytosis. In order to be internalized, the receptor-ligand complexes must first cluster into clathrin-coated pits.

Subunit structure

Interacts with LDLRAP1, ARRB1, SNX17. Interacts (via NPXY motif) with DAB2 (via PID domain); the interaction is impaired by tyrosine phosphorylation of the NPXY motif. Interacts with the full length immature form of PCSK9 (via C-terminus) By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Endomembrane system; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Membraneclathrin-coated pit; Single-pass type I membrane protein By similarity. Golgi apparatus By similarity. Early endosome By similarity. Late endosome By similarity. Cell surface By similarity. Lysosome By similarity. Note: Found distributed from the plasma membrane to intracellular compartments. Localizes to the Golgi apparatus, early and late endosomes/lysosomes and cell surface in the presence of PCSK9 By similarity.

Domain

The NPXY motif mediates the interaction with the clathrin adaptor DAB2 involved in receptor internalization By similarity.

Post-translational modification

Ubiquitinated by MYLIP leading to degradation By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the LDLR family.

Contains 3 EGF-like domains.

Contains 7 LDL-receptor class A domains.

Contains 6 LDL-receptor class B repeats.
