1 7510321 Organ distribution in rats of two members of the low-density lipoprotein receptor gene family, gp330 and LRP/alpha 2MR, and the receptor-associated protein (RAP).
2 7510321 We investigated immunohistochemically the distribution in rats of the homologous proteins gp330 and the LDL receptor-related protein (LRP/alpha 2MR), and a receptor-associated protein (RAP), and the sites to which soluble exogenous RAP binds.
3 7510321 The only cells that clearly expressed both LRP/alpha 2MR and gp330 were retinal and ciliary epithelial cells.
4 7510321 RAP was found in intracellular vesicles in all cells that expressed gp330 or LRP/alpha 2MR.
5 7510321 Binding sites for RAP were found on the surface of those cells with surface gp330 or LRP, and also throughout the cytoplasm in cells with diffuse cellular LRP/alpha 2MR or gp330.
6 7510321 Because of their different locations, we conclude that gp330 and LRP/alpha 2MR serve distinct functions in vivo, despite similarities in ligand-binding properties observed in vitro.
7 7510321 Organ distribution in rats of two members of the low-density lipoprotein receptor gene family, gp330 and LRP/alpha 2MR, and the receptor-associated protein (RAP).
8 7510321 We investigated immunohistochemically the distribution in rats of the homologous proteins gp330 and the LDL receptor-related protein (LRP/alpha 2MR), and a receptor-associated protein (RAP), and the sites to which soluble exogenous RAP binds.
9 7510321 The only cells that clearly expressed both LRP/alpha 2MR and gp330 were retinal and ciliary epithelial cells.
10 7510321 RAP was found in intracellular vesicles in all cells that expressed gp330 or LRP/alpha 2MR.
11 7510321 Binding sites for RAP were found on the surface of those cells with surface gp330 or LRP, and also throughout the cytoplasm in cells with diffuse cellular LRP/alpha 2MR or gp330.
12 7510321 Because of their different locations, we conclude that gp330 and LRP/alpha 2MR serve distinct functions in vivo, despite similarities in ligand-binding properties observed in vitro.
13 8223699 Location of gp330/alpha 2-m receptor-associated protein (alpha 2-MRAP) and its binding sites in kidney: distribution of endogenous alpha 2-MRAP is modified by tissue processing.
14 8223699 The alpha 2-macroglobulin receptor-associated protein (alpha 2-MRAP) is a 39 to 44 kDa protein that copurifies with the alpha 2-macroglobulin receptor (alpha 2-MR/LRP) and also with gp330, a highly glycosylated protein located within kidney proximal tubules and glomerular podocytes.
15 8223699 Both gp330 and the alpha 2-macroglobulin receptor are members of the low density lipoprotein receptor family but the physiological ligands for gp330 are unknown.
16 8223699 A series of experiments showed that during incubation of snap-frozen tissues, endogenous alpha 2-MRAP is released in soluble form from its intracellular location (i.e., the RER) and binds to gp330 on the brush border of proximal tubules.
17 8223699 Our results demonstrate: a) that in renal proximal tubule cells, alpha 2-MRAP is located predominantly in the RER, b) that alpha 2-MRAP-binding sites are present on gp330, which is on the proximal tubule brush border, and c) that the apparent brush border localization of alpha 2-MRAP detected in snap-frozen sections is due to an artifactual redistribution of endogenous alpha 2-MRAP that occurs during tissue processing.
18 8625526 Two other groups of cDNA clones were identified that displayed similarity with several members of the low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-receptor gene family to which gp330 belongs.
