Record overview

MGPD IDMGP000358
Gene ID722
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namecomplement component 4 binding protein, alpha
Gene Symbol C4BPA
SynonymsPRP; C4BP;
Alternate namesC4b-binding protein alpha chain; proline-rich protein;
Chromosome1
Map Location1q32
SummaryThis 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]
