LRPAP1

LRPAP1 Gene Summary

This gene encodes a protein that interacts with the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-related protein and facilitates its proper folding and localization by preventing the binding of ligands. Mutations in this gene have been identified in individuals with myopia 23. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

  • receptor antagonist activity
  • Alpha-2-macroglobulin RAP, N-terminal domain
  • enzyme binding
  • receptor agonist activity
  • central domain
  • beta-amyloid binding
  • protein binding
  • low-density lipoprotein receptor binding
