| UniProt functional annotation for P36980 | |||
| UniProt code: P36980. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Involved in complement regulation. The dimerized forms have avidity for tissue-bound complement fragments and efficiently compete with the physiological complement inhibitor CFH. Can associate with lipoproteins and may play a role in lipid metabolism. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23487775}. | |
| Subunit: | Head-to-tail homodimer and heterodimer with CFHR1 or CFHR5. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23487775}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Secreted. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma. | |
| Ptm: | N-glycosylated. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1533657, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19159218}. | |
