abstract：:Most of the LDL receptor family members recognize apolipoprotein E. The structures of the VLDL receptor, and recently identified apolipoprotein E receptor 2, closely resemble the LDL receptor. Recent studies have demonstrated that the VLDL receptor is responsible for the reproduction of premammalian species by mediati...
