Gene Full Name :

Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein

Synonyms :

Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein;LBP;Lbp;

Protein Name :

Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein

Molecular Weight :

53055 MW

Protein Function :

Binds to the lipid A moiety of bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), a glycolipid present in the outer membrane of all Gram-negative bacteria, and acts as an affinity enhancer for CD14, facilitating its association with LPS. Promotes the release of cytokines in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (By similarity).

Subcellular Localization :

Secreted.

Background :

Lipopolysaccharide binding protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LBP gene. This gene is mapped to 20q11.23. LBP is a soluble acute-phase protein that binds to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (or LPS) to elicit immune responses by presenting the LPS to important cell surface pattern recognition receptors called CD14 and TLR4. It is present in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with pneumococcal meningitis. The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the acute-phase immunologic response to gram-negative bacterial infections. LBP is made in the liver during the acute phase of infections and is thought to function as a carrier for LPS and to help control LPS-dependent monocyte responses.
