Lo que as a unit can function as a relative pronoun.

Neuter relative pronouns: lo que and lo cual (which, what). Since they are neuter forms, these pronouns refer to a situation or concept, not a specific masculine or femine noun or pronoun. The difference between them is that lo cual is used only when it refers to something that has already been mentioned in the same sentence. Lo que may be used like lo cual, and may also be used to refer to something that has not been brought up before; thus it may be used at the beginning of an utterance. Tip: when the word “what” appears in a sentence and is not a question word, it is normally translated as lo que.
