| UniProt functional annotation for P15529 | |||
| UniProt code: P15529. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Acts as a cofactor for complement factor I, a serine protease which protects autologous cells against complement-mediated injury by cleaving C3b and C4b deposited on host tissue. May be involved in the fusion of the spermatozoa with the oocyte during fertilization. Also acts as a costimulatory factor for T-cells which induces the differentiation of CD4+ into T-regulatory 1 cells. T-regulatory 1 cells suppress immune responses by secreting interleukin-10, and therefore are thought to prevent autoimmunity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10843656, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12540904}. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) A number of viral and bacterial pathogens seem to bind MCP in order to exploit its immune regulation property and directly induce an immunosuppressive phenotype in T-cells. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Adenovirus subgroup B2 and Ad3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12915534, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14566335, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15047806, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15078926, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15919905, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16254377}. | |

| Function: | (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Herpesvirus 6/HHV-6. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12663806, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12724329}. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) May act as a receptor for pathogenic bacteria Neisseria and Streptococcus pyogenes (PubMed:7708671, PubMed:9379894, PubMed:11260136, PubMed:11971006). | |
| Subunit: | Interacts with C3b (PubMed:3260937, PubMed:1717583). Interacts with C4b (PubMed:1717583). Interacts with moesin/MSN (PubMed:7884872). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1717583, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3260937, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7884872}. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Interacts with measles virus H protein. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10972291}. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Interacts with human herpesvirus 6 GH protein (PubMed:12663806, PubMed:12724329). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12663806, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12724329}. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Interacts with human adenovirus B/D fiber protein (PubMed:12915534, PubMed:14566335, PubMed:15047806, PubMed:15078926, PubMed:15919905, PubMed:16254377). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12915534, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14566335, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15047806, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15078926, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15919905, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16254377}. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Binds to Streptococcus pyogenes M protein and to type IV pili from Neisseria (PubMed:7708671, PubMed:9379894, PubMed:11260136, PubMed:11971006). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11260136, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11971006, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7708671, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9379894}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, acrosome inner membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12112588, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14597734, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15307194}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12112588, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14597734, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15307194}. Note=Inner acrosomal membrane of spermatozoa. Internalized upon binding of Measles virus, Herpesvirus 6 or Neisseria gonorrhoeae, which results in an increased susceptibility of infected cells to complement-mediated injury. In cancer cells or cells infected by Neisseria, shedding leads to a soluble peptide. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Expressed by all cells except erythrocytes. | |
| Domain: | Sushi domains 1 and 2 are required for interaction with human adenovirus B PIV/FIBER protein and with Measles virus H protein. Sushi domains 2 and 3 are required for Herpesvirus 6 binding. Sushi domain 3 is required for Neisseria binding. Sushi domains 3 and 4 are required for interaction with Streptococcus pyogenes M protein and are the most important for interaction with C3b and C4b. | |
| Ptm: | N-glycosylated on Asn-83; Asn-114 and Asn-273 in most tissues, but probably less N-glycosylated in testis. N-glycosylation on Asn-114 and Asn-273 is required for cytoprotective function. N-glycosylation on Asn-114 is required for Measles virus binding. N-glycosylation on Asn- 273 is required for Neisseria binding. N-glycosylation is not required for human adenovirus binding. | |
| Ptm: | Extensively O-glycosylated in the Ser/Thr-rich domain. O- glycosylation is required for Neisseria binding but not for Measles virus or human adenovirus binding. | |
| Ptm: | In epithelial cells, isoforms B/D/F/H/J/L/3 are phosphorylated by YES1 in response to infection by Neisseria gonorrhoeae; which promotes infectivity. In T-cells, these isoforms may be phosphorylated by LCK. | |
| Disease: | Hemolytic uremic syndrome atypical 2 (AHUS2) [MIM:612922]: An atypical form of hemolytic uremic syndrome. It is a complex genetic disease characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, renal failure and absence of episodes of enterocolitis and diarrhea. In contrast to typical hemolytic uremic syndrome, atypical forms have a poorer prognosis, with higher death rates and frequent progression to end-stage renal disease. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14566051, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16386793, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16621965, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20513133}. Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Other genes may play a role in modifying the phenotype. Patients with CD46 mutations seem to have an overall better prognosis compared to patients carrying CFH mutations. | |
