01
Overview
Leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 15 (LRRC15) is a cell membrane-expressed protein involved in cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions. It contains 15 leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) in its extracellular region, a transmembrane domain, and a short intracellular tail. LRRC15 is expressed in tissues such as the placenta, skin, activated fibroblasts in wounds, and lymphoid tissues. It binds fibronectin, laminin, and collagen, suggesting a role in cell adhesion. LRRC15 also interacts with the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, inhibiting viral entry and inducing antiviral transcriptional programs. Aberrant expression has been observed in cancer-associated fibroblasts and some mesenchymal tumors.
