Stable Receptor Related Protein (RAP) LRP1 Inhibitor

Stable Receptor Related Protein (RAP) low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) Inhibitor was made by mutating Y260 (in helix 2) and T297 (in helix 3) to cysteines that form a disulfide bond, and four histidine residues (H257, H259, H268, and H290) to phenylalanines.

Highlights:

  • Contains the following mutations: Y260C, T297C, H257F, H259F, H268F, and H290F
  • Purified over reverse phase HPLC to remove endotoxin

Stable Receptor-Associated Protein (RAP) is an antagonist of lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1). When RAP is administered IV post-stroke, it results in significant regaining of motor activity and a reduction in BBB leakage. RAP may also hold therapeutic promise in management of risk of bleeding in hemophiliac patients. The molecule binds to lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) with high affinity and inhibits LRP1 function both in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that the novel RAP may be a useful tool in understanding lipoprotein metabolism, cell signaling, modulation of blood brain barrier integrity, and blood coagulation and fibrinolysis.
