VLDL receptor

The very-low-density-lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR) is a transmembrane lipoprotein receptor of the low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) receptor family. VLDLR shows considerable homology with the members of this lineage. Discovered in 1992 by Tokuo Yamamoto and Sadao Takahashi, VLDLR is widely distributed throughout the tissues of the body, including the heart…
