General annotation (Comments)

Function

Cell surface receptor for Reelin (RELN) and apolipoprotein E (apoE)-containing ligands. Also binds alpha2-macroglobulin. LRP8 participates in transmitting the extracellular Reelin signal to intracellular signaling processes, by binding to DAB1 on its cytoplasmic tail. Reelin acts via both the VLDL receptor (VLDLR) and LRP8 to regulate DAB1 tyrosine phosphorylation and microtubule function in neurons. LRP8 has higher affinity for Reelin than VLDLR. LRP8 is thus a key component of the Reelin pathway which governs neuronal layering of the forebrain during embryonic brain development By similarity.

Subunit structure

Reelin associates with two or more receptor molecules. Interacts with DAB1 and JNK-interacting proteins By similarity. Ref.2

Subcellular location

Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein Potential.

Tissue specificity

Mainly in brain.

Post-translational modification

O-glycosylated By similarity.

Tyrosine phosphorylated upon apoE binding By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the LDLR family.

Contains 2 EGF-like domains.

Contains 7 LDL-receptor class A domains.

Contains 5 LDL-receptor class B repeats.
