Gene

C4BPA

Species
Homo sapiens
Symbol
C4BPA
Name
complement component 4 binding protein alpha
Synonyms
  • C4b binding protein, alpha chain
  • C4b-binding protein alpha chain
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables RNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of complement activation, classical pathway; regulation of opsonization; and response to symbiotic bacterium. Located in extracellular space. Implicated in COVID-19.
RGD Description
This gene encodes a member of a superfamily of proteins composed predominantly of tandemly arrayed short consensus repeats of approximately 60 amino acids. Along with a single, unique beta-chain, seven identical alpha-chains encoded by this gene assemble into the predominant isoform of C4b-binding protein, a multimeric protein that controls activation of the complement cascade through the classical pathway. The genes encoding both alpha and beta chains are located adjacent to each other on human chromosome 1 in the regulator of complement activation gene cluster. Two pseudogenes of this gene are also found in the cluster. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
