Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of the haemoglobin scavenger receptor.

TL;DR: The identification of the acute phase-regulated and signal-inducing macrophage protein, CD163, as a receptor that scavenges haemoglobin by mediating endocytosis of haptoglobin–haemoglobin complexes is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

The intrinsic factor-vitamin B12 receptor, cubilin, is a high-affinity apolipoprotein A-I receptor facilitating endocytosis of high-density lipoprotein.

TL;DR: Cubilin is the intestinal receptor for the endocytosis of intrinsic factor–vitamin B12 and a receptor in epithelial apoA-I/HDL metabolism, and apolipoprotein A-I, the main protein of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), is isolated using cubilin affinity chromatography.
Journal ArticleDOI

The intrinsic factor-vitamin B12 receptor and target of teratogenic antibodies is a megalin-binding peripheral membrane protein with homology to developmental proteins.

TL;DR: The present report shows the molecular characterization of the rat 460-kDa epithelial glycoprotein that functions as the receptor facilitating uptake of intrinsic factor-vitamin B12 complexes in the intestine and kidney and proposes the name cubilin for the novel receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Dissection of the Intrinsic Factor-Vitamin B12 Receptor, Cubilin, Discloses Regions Important for Membrane Association and Ligand Binding *

TL;DR: The N-terminal cubilin region seems crucial for membrane association, whereas the CUB domain cluster harbors distinct sites for ligand binding, according to analysis of conditioned media and cell extracts of transfected cells.
