Abstract
The ability of the low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP) to form homo-dimers was studied in mouse neuroblastoma and human neuroglioma cells as well as in primary cortical cultures from adult mouse brain. Homo-dimerization of LRP light chain (LC) was shown by several methods including co-immunoprecipitation, fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy, and bimolecular fluorescence complementation assay. The requirement of intact NPXY motifs of LRP LC for homo-dimerization was ruled out by co-immunoprecipitation assay.
