... lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) Historically, LBP [LPS (lipopolysaccharide)-binding protein), the focus of this review, and BPI (bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein) were the first members of the family of proteins with a BPI/LBP/PLUNC (palate, lung...

... lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) mutualism Vibrio fischeri We are not aware of a comparably well-characterized non-mammalian protein that functions more similarly to human LBP than BPI, although there are related invertebrate proteins with a charged residue profile more similar to human LBP than...

... Biochemical Society 2011 bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI) BPI fold-containing (BPIF) lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) palate lung and nasal epithelium clone (PLUNC) PLUNC (palate, lung and nasal epithelium clone) was first described in the nasal epithelium...

... (in rats). These rapidly evolving proteins are structurally related to lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) and bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI). In the present analysis we comment on the comparative aspects of this protein family, which may function to protect epithelial surfaces...
