Lipopolysaccharide binding protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LBP gene.
The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the acute-phase immunologic response to gram-negative bacterial infections.
Gram-negative bacteria contain a glycolipid, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), on their outer cell wall.
Together with bactericidal permeability-increasing protein (BPI), the encoded protein binds LPS and interacts with the CD14 receptor, probably playing a role in regulating LPS-dependent monocyte responses.
Studies in mice suggest that the encoded protein is necessary for the rapid acute-phase response to LPS but not for the clearance of LPS from circulation.
This protein is part of a family of structurally and functionally related proteins, including BPI, plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), and phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP).
