LMBR1L


Description

The LMBR1L (limb development membrane protein 1 like) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 12.

Protein LMBR1L is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LMBR1L gene.

LMBR1L plays a critical role in lymphocyte development by suppressing the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. It acts in conjunction with UBAC2 and the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase AMFR to promote the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of CTNNB1 (beta-catenin) and the Wnt receptors FZD6 and LRP6. LMBR1L also stabilizes the beta-catenin destruction complex, which is essential for regulating CTNNB1 levels. Additionally, LMBR1L functions as a receptor for LCN1 (lipocalin-1) and mediates its endocytosis.

LMBR1L is also known as LIMR.
