- | '''Vaccinia Complement Protein in Complex with Heparin'''
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | ==Overview==
| + | |
- | Vaccinia virus complement control protein (VCP), a homolog of the regulators of the complement activation family of proteins, inhibits complement activation through mechanisms similar to human fluid-phase complement regulators factor H and C4b-binding protein. VCP has a heparin-binding activity that assists vaccinia in host interactions. Interaction with cell-surface polyanions like heparin is centrally important in the functioning of fluid-phase complement regulators and is the basis of host-target discrimination by the alternative pathway. We report the structure of VCP in complex with a heparin decasaccharide, which reveals changes in VCP that might be pertinent to complement regulation. Properties that VCP shares with fluid-phase complement regulators suggest that such conformational changes may be of relevance in the functioning of other complement regulators. Additionally, comparison of VCP-heparin interactions with potentially similar interactions in factor H might enable understanding of the structural basis of familial hemolytic uremic syndrome, attributed to mutational disruption of heparin and C3b binding by factor H.
