Description

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human LBP

Biochem/physiol Actions

LBP is involved in the acute-phase immunologic response to gram-negative bacterial infections. Gram-negative bacteria contain a glycolipid, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), on their outer cell wall. Together with bactericidal permeability-increasing protein (BPI), the protein binds LPS and interacts with the CD14 receptor, probably playing a role in regulating LPS-dependent monocyte responses. Studies in mice suggest that the protein is necessary for the rapid acute-phase response to LPS but not for the clearance of LPS from circulation. This protein is part of a family of structurally and functionally related proteins, including BPI, plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), and phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP).The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the acute-phase immunologic response to gram-negative bacterial infections.

Finally, this gene is found on chromosome 20, immediately downstream of the BPI gene.
