Literature associating ASGR1 and autoimmune disease of gastrointestinal tract
ASGR1 [ENSP00000269299]
Asialoglycoprotein receptor 1; Mediates the endocytosis of plasma glycoproteins to which the terminal sialic acid residue on their complex carbohydrate moieties has been removed. The receptor recognizes terminal galactose and N- acetylgalactosamine units. After ligand binding to the receptor, the resulting complex is internalized and transported to a sorting organelle, where receptor and ligand are disassociated. The receptor then returns to the cell membrane surface.
Synonyms: ASGR1, ASGR1p, hASGR1, I3L129, I3L1F8 ...
