Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Plays a role in the innate immune response. Binds to the lipid A moiety of bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), a glycolipid present in the outer membrane of all Gram-negative bacteria (PubMed:7517398, PubMed:24120359). Acts as an affinity enhancer for CD14, facilitating its association with LPS. Promotes the release of cytokines in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (PubMed:7517398, PubMed:24120359). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1698311, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20133493, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24120359, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7517398, ECO:0000305|PubMed:17481951}. |
| Pathway | |
| Protein Families | BPI/LBP/Plunc superfamily, BPI/LBP family |
| Tissue Specificity | Detected in blood serum (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2402637, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24120359}. |
