Summary: (from NCBI-Entrez) ..[read more]This gene encodes a transmembrane low-density lipoprotein receptor that binds and internalizes ligands in the process of receptor-mediated endocytosis. This protein also acts as a co-receptor with Frizzled protein family members for transducing signals by
A new low density lipoprotein receptor related protein, LRP5, is expressed in hepatocytes and adrenal cortex, and recognizes apolipoprotein E (Kim et al. 1998.
Sclerostin Binds to LRP5/6 and Antagonizes Canonical Wnt Signaling
(Li et al. 2005) . SOST is a ligand for LRP5/LRP6 and a Wnt signaling inhibitor (Semenov et al. 2005).
