Protein Information

Description

Protein function:

Involved in the formation of the lytic C5b-9m complex.

Subcellular location:

Secreted

Post-translational modification:

All cysteine residues are assumed to be cross-linked to one another. Individual modules containing an even number of conserved cysteine residues are supposed to have disulfide linkages only within the same module.

Polymorphism:

The sequence shown is that of allotype C6a.
