Lipoprotein receptor-related protein explained

Lipoprotein receptor-related proteins, low density lipoprotein receptor-related proteins (HGNC) or prolow-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (UniProt), abbreviated LRP, are a group of proteins.

They include:

• LRP1
• LRP1B
• LRP2 (megalin)
• LRP3
• LRP4
• LRP5
• LRP6
• LRP8, apolipoprotein e receptor
• LRP10
• LRP11
• LRP12

Lipoprotein receptor-related proteins are co-receptors for Wnt signaling.
