Record overview

MGPD IDMGP002158
Gene ID4973
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Nameoxidized low density lipoprotein (lectin-like) receptor 1
Gene Symbol OLR1
SynonymsLOX1; LOXIN; SLOX1; CLEC8A; SCARE1;
Alternate namesoxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1; C-type lectin domain family 8 member A; hLOX-1; lectin-type oxidized LDL receptor 1; ox LDL receptor 1; oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1, soluble form; scavenger receptor class E, member 1;
Chromosome12
Map Location12p13.2-p12.3
SummaryThis gene encodes a low density lipoprotein receptor that belongs to the C-type lectin superfamily. This gene is regulated through the cyclic AMP signaling pathway. The encoded protein binds, internalizes and degrades oxidized low-density lipoprotein. This protein may be involved in the regulation of Fas-induced apoptosis. This protein may play a role as a scavenger receptor. Mutations of this gene have been associated with atherosclerosis, risk of myocardial infarction, and may modify the risk of Alzheimer's disease. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]
