Lipopolysaccharide-Binding Protein

An acute-phase protein that binds to the lipid a moiety of bacterial LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDES, a glycolipid present in the outer membrane of all GRAM-NEGATIVE BACTERIA. The Lipopolysaccharide-Binding Proteins/Lipopolysaccharide complex may be involved in immune response by interacting with the CD14 ANTIGEN
