NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
LRP8: Cell surface receptor for Reelin (RELN) and apolipoprotein E (apoE)-containing ligands. LRP8 participates in transmitting the extracellular Reelin signal to intracellular signaling processes, by binding to DAB1 on its cytoplasmic tail. Reelin acts via both the VLDL receptor (VLDLR) and LRP8 to regulate DAB1 tyrosine phosphorylation and microtubule function in neurons. LRP8 has higher affinity for Reelin than VLDLR. LRP8 is thus a key component of the Reelin pathway which governs neuronal layering of the forebrain during embryonic brain development. Binds the endoplasmic reticulum resident receptor-associated protein (RAP). Binds dimers of beta 2-glycoprotein I and may be involved in the suppression of platelet aggregation in the vasculature. Highly expressed in the initial segment of the epididymis, where it affects the functional expression of clusterin and phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (PHGPx), two proteins required for sperm maturation. May also function as an endocytic receptor. Defects in LRP8 are a cause of myocardial infarction type 1 (MCI1). A condition defined by the irreversible necrosis of heart muscle secondary to prolonged ischemia. Belongs to the LDLR family. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Mouse Lrp8 lrp8 (Catalog #AAA9426349) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9426349 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse Lrp8. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 8, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
