Standardizing Scavenger Receptor Nomenclature [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2014
Scavenger receptors constitute a large family of proteins that are structurally diverse and participate in a wide range of biological functions. These receptors are expressed predominantly by myeloid cells and recognize a variety of ligands, including ...

Scavenger receptors [PDF]

Current Biology, 2020
Scavenger receptors (SRs) are a large family of cell-surface receptors that are diverse in their structure and biological function and are divided into different classes. SRs can bind to a range of ligands and enhance the elimination of altered-self or non-self targets.

The Evolution of the Scavenger Receptor Cysteine-Rich Domain of the Class A Scavenger Receptors [PDF]

Frontiers in Immunology, 2015
The class A scavenger receptor (cA-SR) family is a group of five evolutionarily related innate immune receptors. The cA-SRs are known for their promiscuous ligand binding; as they have been shown to bind bacteria, such as Streptococcus pneumoniae and Escherichia coli, as well as different modified forms of low-density lipoprotein.

The evolution of the class A scavenger receptors [PDF]

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2012
Abstract Background The class A scavenger receptors are a subclass of a diverse family of proteins defined based on their ability to bind modified lipoproteins. The 5 members of this family are strikingly variable in their protein structure and function, raising the question as to whether it is appropriate to group ...

Scavenger receptor-BI is a receptor for lipoprotein(a) [PDF]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) is a multi-ligand receptor that binds a variety of lipoproteins, including high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL), but lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] has not been investigated as a possible ligand. Stable cell lines (HEK293 and HeLa) expressing human SR-BI were incubated with protein- or lipid-

Vaccinia virus binds to the scavenger receptor MARCO on the surface of keratinocytes. [PDF]

, 2015
Patients with altered skin immunity, such as individuals with atopic dermatitis (AD), can have a life-threatening disruption of the epidermis known as eczema vaccinatum after vaccinia virus (VV) infection of the skin. Here, we sought to better understand

Scavenger receptors in atherosclerosis [PDF]

Current Opinion in Hematology, 1997
Membership in the broad family of scavenger receptors has grown significantly. Two new scavenger receptor receptors have been cloned (SR-BI and SR-CI) and a previously isolated integral membrane protein (CD36) has been found to possess lipoprotein binding properties that entitle it to be included in the family. The breadth of ligand recognition of this
