Molecular characterization of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9-mediated degradation of the LDLR

Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is a secreted protein that promotes degradation of cell surface LDL receptors (LDLRs) in selected cell types. Here we used genetic and pharmacological inhibitors to define the pathways involved in PCSK9-mediated LDLR degradation. Inactivating mut...
