[HTML][HTML] The class B scavenger receptors SR-BI and CD36 are receptors for anionic phospholipids
A Rigotti, SL Acton, M Krieger - Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1995 - ASBMB
The specific recognition of anionic phospholipids in the outer leaflets of cell membranes and
lipoproteins by cell surface receptors may play an important role in a variety of physiologic
and pathophysiologic processes (eg recognition of damaged or senescent cells by the
reticuloendothelial system or lipoprotein homeostasis). Several investigators have described
anionic phospholipid binding to cells, and phosphatidylserine (PS) binding to a partially
purified~ 95-kDa membrane protein has recently been reported (Sambrano, GR, and …
