Normal cell development depends to a large part on multifunctional proteins that have
evolved by recombination of proven modular elements. We now have discovered and
characterized in rabbit such a multi-domain protein, and classify it as novel member of the
low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor gene family. The extracellular portion of the~ 250-kDa
membrane protein, termed LR11, contains a cluster of 11 LDL receptor ligand binding
repeats, a group of 5 LDL receptor" YWTD" repeats, a large hexarepeat domain of structural …
