[HTML][HTML] Identification of a novel exon in apolipoprotein E receptor 2 leading to alternatively spliced mRNAs found in cells of the vascular wall but not in neuronal tissue

Novel members of the low density lipoprotein receptor family were identified in human
endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells utilizing a homology-cloning strategy. Four
novel mRNA transcripts could be identified as isoforms of the apolipoprotein E receptor 2
(apoEr2): one form lacking three ligand binding repeats (nucleotides 497–883) but
containing a novel ligand binding repeat adjacent to a unique cysteine-rich domain
preceding the epidermal growth factor precursor domain of apoEr2, forms lacking the O …
