LDLR consist of a ligand-binding domain (LBD residues 1-292), epidermal growth factor precursor homology domain (EGFP residues 293-699), oligosaccharide-rich domain (residues 700-758), membrane-spanning domain (residues 759-781) and cytoplasmic domain (residues 782-832). LDLR LBD contains 7 ca. 40 amino acid long repeats (LB) containing 6 cysteine residues, making a calcium binding octahedral structure. LDLR EGFP contains 2 EGF repeats followed by 6 YWTD repeats and another EGF repeat. LDLR LBD residues 133-273 are named C-type lectin-like domain.
