2001 Disabled-2 (Dab2) phosphotyrosine-binding domain binds peptides containing the FXN-PXY sequence found in the intracellular domains of LDLR family members, required for receptor internalization. Dab2 transiently colocalizes with LDLR in clathrin-coated pits but is absent from endosomes and lysosomes. The p96 Dab2 isoform (but not p67) binds the alpha-adaptin subunit of AP-2 via DPF motifs, and overexpression of p96 disrupts AP-2 localization, suggesting Dab2 acts as an adaptor regulating LDLR trafficking through clathrin-coated pits. Peptide binding assays, colocalization by fluorescence microscopy, Co-IP with AP-2, overexpression/dominant-negative experiments Traffic (Copenhagen, Denmark) High 11247302
2016 The CCC (COMMD/CCDC22/CCDC93) and WASH complexes are required for endosomal sorting and recycling of LDLR back to the cell surface. Inactivation of either complex causes LDLR mislocalization, increased lysosomal degradation of LDLR, and impaired LDL uptake. COMMD1-deficient dogs and liver-specific Commd1 knockout mice have elevated plasma LDL cholesterol. Mutations in CCDC22 (causing X-linked intellectual disability) and in WASH component KIAA0196 (strumpellin) are associated with hypercholesterolaemia in humans. Liver-specific knockout mice (Commd1), patient genetics, siRNA knockdown, LDLR localization by immunofluorescence, LDL uptake assays, plasma cholesterol measurements Nature communications High 26965651
2014 ZFP36L1 and ZFP36L2 RNA-binding proteins bind specifically to the 3'-UTR of LDLR mRNA and recruit the CCR4-NOT deadenylase complex, destabilizing LDLR mRNA. Upon ERK activation, p90 ribosomal S6 kinase (RSK) directly phosphorylates the C-terminal regions of ZFP36L1 and ZFP36L2, causing dissociation of the CCR4-NOT complex and stabilization of LDLR mRNA, thereby increasing LDLR protein levels. Proteomic pulldown of LDLR mRNA 3'-UTR binding proteins, phosphorylation assays, LDLR mRNA stability assays, antisense oligonucleotide disruption of ZFP36L1/L2–LDLR mRNA interaction Nucleic acids research High 25106868
2012 IDOL (inducible degrader of LDLR) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase whose expression is transcriptionally induced by the cholesterol-sensing nuclear receptor LXR. When cellular sterol levels rise, activated LXR induces IDOL, which ubiquitinates LDLR and targets it for lysosomal degradation, thereby limiting cholesterol uptake. This LXR-IDOL-LDLR feedback pathway is independent of the SREBP pathway.

2011 EGFRvIII activates PI3K/SREBP-1 signaling to upregulate LDLR expression, promoting tumor cell survival through increased cholesterol uptake in glioblastoma. Targeting LDLR with the LXR agonist GW3965 causes IDOL-mediated LDLR degradation and increases ABCA1 cholesterol efflux transporter expression, promoting GBM tumor cell death in vivo. GBM cell lines, xenograft models, EGFRvIII/PI3K pathway manipulation, LXR agonist treatment, LDLR protein quantification Cancer discovery Medium 22059152
2015 USP2 deubiquitylase interacts with IDOL E3 ubiquitin ligase and promotes IDOL deubiquitylation, paradoxically stabilizing IDOL protein while markedly attenuating IDOL-mediated degradation of LDLR. USP2 forms a tri-partite complex with IDOL and LDLR, and in this context promotes deubiquitylation of LDLR itself, preventing its lysosomal degradation. Loss of USP2 reduces LDLR protein in an IDOL-dependent manner and limits LDL uptake. Genetic screen, Co-IP, ubiquitylation assays, LDL uptake assays, USP2 knockdown/overexpression Circulation research High 26666640
2008 PCSK9 gain-of-function mutants (D374H, D374Y, D129N, N425S, R496W) reduce cell-surface LDLR protein when secreted from transfected cells and added to lymphocytes. Aspartate at position 374 of PCSK9 is critical for potent LDLR degradation. Approximately 35% of PCSK9-mediated LDLR reduction occurs via an ARH-independent pathway (demonstrated in ARH-deficient lymphocytes that cannot internalize LDLR), indicating PCSK9 can act at the cell surface. Conditioned medium from transfected HEK293T cells applied to lymphocytes, FACS quantification of cell-surface LDLR, mutagenesis of PCSK9 at residue 374, ARH-null lymphocyte experiments Atherosclerosis High 19081568
2025 PCSK9 promotes LDLR degradation by blocking acidic pH-induced conformational change in the LDLR extracellular domain that normally allows LDLR to interact with SNX17 (sorting nexin 17) through its intracellular domain for recycling. Knockdown of SNX17 abolishes LDLR recycling, causing accelerated lysosomal degradation, and also abolishes PCSK9-mediated LDLR degradation. FH sequence variations that disrupt LDLR recycling (SNX17 interaction) are unresponsive to PCSK9 or PCSK9 inhibitors. SNX17 knockdown, LDLR knockout mice and cells, reconstitution with LDLR variants, in vitro acidic pH conformational assays, Co-IP, in vivo mouse experiments Circulation High 40071387
2018 In the absence of LDLR, AMPK phosphorylates ALDH2 at threonine 356, enabling its nuclear translocation. Nuclear ALDH2 interacts with HDAC3 to repress transcription of ATP6V0E2 (a lysosomal proton pump protein), impairing lysosomal function, autophagy, and oxidized LDL degradation, promoting foam cell formation. The cytosolic C-terminus of LDLR directly interacts with AMPK, blocking ALDH2 phosphorylation and nuclear translocation.

2007 LDLR and VLDLR are selectively expressed in mature myelinating oligodendrocytes in the postnatal central nervous system, with expression progressively downregulated after P15, suggesting a role for LDLR-mediated cholesterol uptake in myelin sheath formation. Immunohistochemistry, developmental expression analysis in spinal cord and brain regions Developmental dynamics Low 17685481
2019 LDLR contains an FVIII-binding site and LDLR polymorphisms (c.1773C/T and c.81C/T) are associated with distinct pharmacokinetic parameters of Factor VIII concentrates in hemophilia A patients, suggesting LDLR influences FVIII clearance through its intracellular distribution and FVIII binding behavior.

2024 LDLR serves as a direct entry receptor for Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV). The ligand-binding domain (LBD) of LDLR is necessary for CCHFV infection. LDLR binds directly to CCHFV glycoprotein Gc with high affinity, supporting virus attachment and internalization via clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Genetic knockout of LDLR impairs infection in human, monkey, and mouse cells, restored by ectopic LDLR expression. Soluble sLDLR-Fc or anti-LDLR blocking antibodies impair CCHFV infection. LDLR genetic knockout and reconstitution, direct binding assays (CCHFV Gc to LDLR LBD), soluble sLDLR-Fc inhibition, anti-LDLR blocking antibody, in vivo mouse CCHFV infection Cell research High 38182887
2024 LDLR functions as an entry receptor for multiple alphaviruses (GETV, SFV, RRV, BEBV). The interaction is mediated by the ligand-binding domain (LBD) of LDLR, specifically the CR4 and CR5 domains, and the E2-E1 spike of the virus. Mutations in CR4 and CR5 of LDLR-LBD reduce viral entry by more than 20-fold. GST-LBD fusion protein inhibits GETV infection in vitro and in vivo.

2019 LDLR variants D482H and C667F are retained in the ER and fail to traffic to the plasma membrane, as confirmed by N-glycosylation profile analysis. ER-retained mutants associate with ER quality control components, induce ER stress (evidenced by spliced XBP-1 mRNA), and are stabilized by proteasome inhibitors, demonstrating that class II LDLR trafficking-deficient variants are degraded via ER-associated degradation (ERAD).

2007 Berberine increases LDLR transcriptional activity via the JNK pathway: berberine induces c-Jun binding to a c-Jun binding site in the LDLR promoter, and this transcriptional activation is inhibited by the JNK inhibitor SP600125. This is distinct from the previously described berberine-induced ERK-dependent LDLR mRNA stabilization.

2020 LDLR deficiency (Ldlr knockout) results in enhanced caspase-1-dependent cleavage of GSDMD, NLRP3-mediated maturation and release of IL-1β and IL-18, and increased neuronal pyroptosis following cerebral ischemia/reperfusion. Pharmacological blockade of NLRP3 with CY-09 substantially reduced neuronal pyroptosis in Ldlr-/- mice, placing LDLR upstream of the NLRP3 inflammasome in ischemic neuroinflammation.

2020 LDLR loss leads to LDL accumulation, increased apoptosis, TGF-β1 production, and fibroblast-like endothelial and alveolar type II cell accumulation, contributing to pulmonary fibrosis. In vitro, LDL treatment induced apoptosis and TGF-β1 production, while LDLR knockdown induced fibroblast-like cell accumulation and ET-1 expression in endothelial/epithelial cells. Pharmacological restoration of LDLR with atorvastatin and alirocumab inhibited LDL elevation and mitigated bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis.

2024 EGF stimulation induces an extracellular proximity association between EGFR and LDLR at the cell surface, as detected by ecTurboID proximity labeling. EGF stimulation also changes the extracellular interactome of LDLR, increasing its proximity with proteins that regulate EGFR signaling.

2020 Soluble LDLR (sLDLR), the shed ectodomain of transmembrane LDLR, is generated by ADAM-17 (a disintegrin-and-metalloproteinase-17) cleavage. ADAM-17 is activated by inflammation, and shedding reduces cellular uptake of triglyceride-loaded lipoproteins, causing their accumulation in circulation. This mechanistically links plasma sLDLR to hypertriglyceridemia. Review/mechanistic synthesis of published data; ADAM-17 as the identified shedding enzyme Lipids in health and disease Low 32014013
