Description

SR-BI (scavenger receptor class BI, SCARB1) is a member of the CD36 receptor family and acts as a major receptor for HDL for facilitating selective lipid uptake from lipoproteins in several tissues. The SR-BI gene gives rise to at least two mRNA splice variants (SR-BI and SR-BII), with the SR-BII variant being the main isoform in terms of mRNA levels in certain tissues, for example SR-BII mRNA is 48-fold higher in concentration than SR-BI in brain cells. Similar differential SR-BII protein expression levels have also been detected in considerable amounts in other tissues, such as testes, retinal pigment epithelial cells, and spleen. SR-BII isoform differs from SR-BI only in its entirely different, yet highly conserved, cytoplasmic C-terminus which has been proposed to contains a signal responsible for marked alterations in cellular distribution as well as cellular trafficking of SR-BII compared with SR-BI. In contrast to SR-BI, SR-BII mediates the rapid uptake of significant amounts of HDL into endosomal recycling compartment by a pathway which is different from selective lipid uptake at the cell surface (mediated by SR-BI). Because SR-BII influences cellular cholesterol trafficking/homeostasis in a manner distinct from SR-BI, the relative expression as well as functional activities of these two isoforms create a potential means of regulating selective lipid transfer between HDL and cells.
