Host: |
HEK293 |
Note: |
STRICTLY FOR FURTHER RESEARCH USE ONLY (RUO). MUST NOT TO BE USED IN DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS. |
Short Description: |
Recombinant-Human LDL receptor-protein was developed from hek293. For use in research applications. |
Conjugation: |
Biotin |
Formulation: |
Lyophilised from 0.2 Mu m filtered PBS solution, pH7.2, 5% Trehalose. |
Storage Instruction: |
Can be stored in working aliquots at 2°C-8°C C for one month, or at-20°C to-70°C for 1 year. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. NA |
Endotoxin: |
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/µg (1EU/µg). NA |
Immunoreactivity: |
The activity was tested by the ability of immobilized recombinant Human PCSK9 to bind biotinylated recombinant human LDL Receptor in ELISA. The ED50 was calculated to be 0.6ug/ml. NA |
Gene Symbol: |
LDLR |
Gene ID: |
3949 |
Uniprot ID: |
LDLR_HUMAN |
Immunogen Region: |
ALA22-ARG788 |
Immunogen: |
Optimized DNA sequence encoding extracellular domain of Human Low density lipoprotein receptor (ALA22-ARG788) including a C-terminal His tag was expressed in HEK293 cells. Recombinant LDL receptor was further labled by Biotin for detection by avidin |

Post Translational Modifications | N- and O-glycosylated. Ubiquitinated by MYLIP leading to degradation. |
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. (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for hepatitis C virus in hepatocytes, but not through a direct interaction with viral proteins. (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Vesicular stomatitis virus. (Microbial infection) In case of HIV-1 infection, may function as a receptor for extracellular Tat in neurons, mediating its internalization in uninfected cells. |
