title: Knowing when to let go: endosomal release of LDL from the LDL-Receptor.
abstract: In this issue of Molecular Cell, Blacklow and colleagues use NMR structural analyses and the combination of deletion mapping, site-directed mutagenesis and LDL release assays to examine the molecular basis for low pH-induced release of LDL from the LDL receptor.
