background

LOX-1 is a transmembrane glycoprotein that binds to and internalizes ox-LDL.LOX-1 gene deletion in mice and anti-LOX-1 therapy has been shown to decrease inflammation, oxidative stress and atherosclerosis. LOX-1 deletion also results in damage from ischemia, making LOX-1 a promising target of therapy for atherosclerosis and related disorders. In this article we focus on the different mechanisms for regulation, signaling and the various effects of LOX-1 in contributing to atherosclerosis.

molecular weight

The protein has a predicted MW of 25.4 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 30-36 kDa under reduced condition and 60-70 kDa under Non reducing (N) condition based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Function
Receptor that mediates the recognition, internalization and degradation of oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) by vascular endothelial cells. OxLDL is a marker of atherosclerosis that induces vascular endothelial cell activation and dysfunction, resulting in pro-inflammatory responses, pro-oxidative conditions and apoptosis. Its association with oxLDL induces the activation of NF-kappa-B through an increased production of intracellular reactive oxygen and a variety of pro-atherogenic cellular responses including a reduction of nitric oxide (NO) release, monocyte adhesion and apoptosis. In addition to binding oxLDL, it acts as a receptor for the HSP70 protein involved in antigen cross-presentation to naive T-cells in dendritic cells, thereby participating in cell-mediated antigen cross-presentation. Also involved in inflammatory process, by acting as a leukocyte-adhesion molecule at the vascular interface in endotoxin-induced inflammation. Also acts as a receptor for advanced glycation end (AGE) products, activated platelets, monocytes, apoptotic cells and both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.; (Microbial infection) May serve as a receptor for adhesin A variant 3 (nadA) of N.meningitidis.
Catalytic activity
#N/A
Subellular location
Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor. Cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Membrane raft. Secreted. Note=A secreted form also exists. Localization to membrane rafts requires palmitoylation.
Tissues
Expressed at high level in endothelial cells and vascular-rich organs such as placenta, lung, liver and brain, aortic intima, bone marrow, spinal cord and substantia nigra. Also expressed at the surface of dendritic cells. Widely expressed at intermediate and low level.
Structure
Homodimer; disulfide-linked. May form a hexamer composed of 3 homodimers. Interacts with HSP70.; (Microbial infection) Binds to the head and beginning of the coiled stalk of N.meningitidis adhesin A (nadA) variant 3; binding can be abrogated by monoclonal antibodies against the specific regions of NadA. Binding occurs in protein microarrays, in solution and when LOX-1 is expressed on the cell surface.
Post-translational modification
The intrachain disulfide-bonds prevent N-glycosylation at some sites.; N-glycosylated.
Domain
Th
