Description
Asialoglycoprotein Receptor (ASGPR), also known as the hepatic galactose/N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) receptor or Ashwell receptor, is a C-type lectin expressed exclusively in hepatic parenchymal cells. ASGPR consists of two subunits, a major subunit (ASGR1, HL-1) and a minor subunit (ASGR2, HL-2), and specifically recognizes terminal β-linked galactose or GlcNAc on circulating glycoproteins or cells. This receptor plays a critical role in serum glycoprotein homeostasis by mediating the endocytosis and lysosomal degradation of glycoproteins that contain terminal galactose or GlcNAc residues. ASGPR may facilitate hepatic infection by multiple viruses including hepatitis B, and is also a target for liver-specific drug delivery.
