Target intelligence / Profile preview
Leucine rich adaptor protein 1 (LURAP1) is a cytoplasmic adaptor or scaffold protein characterized by two N-terminal leucine-rich repeats and a C-terminal PDZ-binding motif[1][8]. It regulates actin cytoskeleton dynamics and cell migration by forming a complex with CDC42BPA/CDC42BPB and MYO18A, promoting actomyosin assembly and cell protrusion[3][5]. LURAP1 plays a crucial role in vertebrate embryo development, notably in convergence and extension (CE) movements during gastrulation, acting through modulation of Wnt/planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling and interacting with Dishevelled and JNK to coordinate cell polarity[1]. LURAP1 also serves as an activator of the canonical NF-kappa-B pathway, enhancing pro-inflammatory cytokine production and supporting dendritic cell antigen-presenting functions[3][5]. There is no evidence LURAP1 is a direct drug target or clinically actionable biomarker at this time[3][5].
