| UniProt functional annotation for P02746 | |||
| UniProt code: P02746. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | C1q associates with the proenzymes C1r and C1s to yield C1, the first component of the serum complement system. The collagen-like regions of C1q interact with the Ca(2+)-dependent C1r(2)C1s(2) proenzyme complex, and efficient activation of C1 takes place on interaction of the globular heads of C1q with the Fc regions of IgG or IgM antibody present in immune complexes. | |
| Subunit: | C1 is a calcium-dependent trimolecular complex of C1q, c1r and C1s in the molar ration of 1:2:2. C1q subcomponent is composed of nine subunits, six of which are disulfide-linked dimers of the A and B chains, and three of which are disulfide-linked dimers of the C chain. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:708376}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Secreted. | |
| Ptm: | Hydroxylated on lysine and proline residues. Hydroxylated lysine residues can be glycosylated. Human C1Q contains up to 68.3 hydroxylysine-galactosylglucose residues and up to 2.5 hydroxylysine- galactose per molecule. Total percentage hydroxylysine residues glycosylated is 86.4%. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:486087, ECO:0000269|PubMed:6286235, ECO:0000269|PubMed:708376}. | |
| Disease: | Complement component C1q deficiency (C1QD) [MIM:613652]: A disorder caused by impaired activation of the complement classical pathway. It generally leads to severe immune complex disease with features of systemic lupus erythematosus and glomerulonephritis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9476130}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. | |
