Cellular cholesterol distribution influences proteolytic release of the LRP-1 ectodomain

Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-related Protein-1 (LRP-1) is a multifunctional matricellular receptor composed of a large ligand-binding subunit (515-kDa α-chain) associated with a short trans-membrane subunit (85-kDa β-chain). LRP-1, which exhibits both endocytosis and cell signaling properties, p...
