Description | Recombinant Human LDL Receptor is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Ala22-Arg788 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. |
Names | Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor, LDL Receptor, LDLR |
Accession # | P01130 |
Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 50mM HEPES, 150mM NaCl, pH 7.4. |
Shipping |
The product is shipped at ambient temperature. |
Reconstitution |
Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. |
Storage |
Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months. |
Purity |
Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. |
Endotoxin | Less than 0.1 ng/µg (1 IEU/µg) as determined by LAL test. |

Background | Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor (LDLR) is a transmembrane glycoprotein that plays a critical role in cholesterol homeostasis. LDLR mediates blood cholesterol level by interacting with lipoprotein particles like LDL and VLDL. The extracellular domain of LDLR contains LDL receptor type A (ligand-binding) modules (LA repeats), epidermal growth factor-like modules, and LY repeats containing the YWTD consensus motif that are important in binding and releasing of ApoB-100 and ApoE in lipoprotein particles. The C terminal domain of LDLR inside the cell is required for the receptor internalization. Loss of function mutations in the LDLR gene causes Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH). |
