Identification of the second heparin-binding domain in human complement factor H.
Complement factor H (fH) regulates activation of the alternative pathway of C, reducing the amount of C3b deposited on sialic acid-rich surfaces. Heparin binding has been used as a model for examining the sialic acid-binding characteristics of fH. We have previously shown that of the 20 short consensus repeat (SCR) modules of fH, SCR 7 contains an important heparin binding site, but other SCRs ...
متن کاملBivalent and co-operative binding of complement factor H to heparan sulfate and heparin.
FH (Factor H) with 20 SCR (short complement regulator) domains is a major serum regulator of complement, and genetic defects in this are associated with inflammatory diseases. Heparan sulfate is a cell-surface glycosaminoglycan composed of sulfated S-domains and unsulfated NA-domains. To elucidate the molecular mechanism of binding of FH to glycosaminoglycans, we performed ultracentrifugation, ...
متن کاملLocalization of the heparin binding exosite of factor IXa.
Factor IXa (FIXa) is known to have a binding site for heparin that has not been mapped by a mutagenesis study. By homology modeling based on structural data, we identified eight basic residues in the catalytic domain of FIXa that can potentially bind to heparin. These residues, Lys(98), Lys(126), Arg(165), Arg(170), Lys(173), Lys(230), Arg(233), and Lys(239) (chymotrypsin numbering) were substi...

15 صفحه اولMicrobes Bind Complement Inhibitor Factor H via a Common Site
To cause infections microbes need to evade host defense systems, one of these being the evolutionarily old and important arm of innate immunity, the alternative pathway of complement. It can attack all kinds of targets and is tightly controlled in plasma and on host cells by plasma complement regulator factor H (FH). FH binds simultaneously to host cell surface structures such as heparin or gly...
