GO curators for mouse genes have assigned the following annotations to the gene product of Ldlrap1. (This text reflects annotations as of Wednesday, January 23, 2013.) Summary from NCBI RefSeq
[Summary is not available for the mouse gene. This summary is for the human ortholog.] The protein encoded by this gene is a cytosolic protein which contains a phosphotyrosine binding (PTD) domain. The PTD domain has been found to interact with the cytoplasmic tail of the LDL receptor. Mutations in this gene lead to LDL receptor malfunction and cause the disorder autosomal recessive hypercholesterolaemia.

Researchers have inferred from direct assay, that the gene product of Ldlrap1
The gene product of Ldlrap1 has been shown to bind to the gene products of Aplp1, Gabarapl1, Ldlr, Lrp1. [1, 2] Researchers have inferred, based on physical interactions, that the gene product of Ldlrap1
