- | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CO3_HUMAN CO3_HUMAN] Defects in C3 are the cause of complement component 3 deficiency (C3D) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/613779 613779]. A rare defect of the complement classical pathway. Patients develop recurrent, severe, pyogenic infections because of ineffective opsonization of pathogens. Some patients may also develop autoimmune disorders, such as arthralgia and vasculitic rashes, lupus-like syndrome and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.<ref>PMID:19913840</ref> <ref>PMID:9596584</ref> <ref>PMID:11387479</ref> <ref>PMID:15713468</ref> <ref>PMID:7961791</ref> [:] Genetic variation in C3 is associated with susceptibility to age-related macular degeneration type 9 (ARMD9) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/611378 611378]. ARMD is a multifactorial eye disease and the most common cause of irreversible vision loss in the developed world. In most patients, the disease is manifest as ophthalmoscopically visible yellowish accumulations of protein and lipid that lie beneath the retinal pigment epithelium and within an elastin-containing structure known as Bruch membrane.<ref>PMID:19913840</ref> <ref>PMID:17634448</ref> Defects in C3 are a cause of susceptibility to hemolytic uremic syndrome atypical type 5 (AHUS5) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/612925 612925]. An atypical form of hemolytic uremic syndrome. It is a complex genetic disease characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, renal failure and absence of episodes of enterocolitis and diarrhea. In contrast to typical hemolytic uremic syndrome, atypical forms have a poorer prognosis, with higher death rates and frequent progression to end-stage renal disease. Note=Susceptibility to the development of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome can be conferred by mutations in various components of or regulatory factors in the complement cascade system. Other genes may play a role in modifying the phenotype.<ref>PMID:19913840</ref> <ref>PMID:18796626</ref> <ref>PMID:20513133</ref> Note=Increased levels of C3 and its cleavage product ASP, are associated with obesity, diabetes and coronary heart disease. Short-term endurance training reduces baseline ASP levels and subsequently fat storage.<ref>PMID:19913840</ref> | ||

- | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/ | + | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/LUFX_LUTLO LUFX_LUTLO] Sand fly salivary protein with antithrombotic, and anti-complement (alternative pathway) activities (PubMed:22796577, PubMed:28912782). Is a slow, tight, non-competitive, and reversible inhibitor of factor Xa (FXa, F10) (PubMed:22796577). Is specific for FXa (Kd=3.86 nM) and does not interact with non-activated FX, or all other enzymes tested (PubMed:22796577). In addition, it blocks prothrombinase and increases both prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time (PubMed:22796577). It also prevents protease-activated receptor 2 (F2RL1, PAR2) activation by FXa (PubMed:22796577). In vivo, it abrogates edema formation triggered by injection of FXa in the paw of mice (PubMed:22796577). Moreover, it prevents FeCl3-induced carotid artery thrombus formation and prolongs activated partial thromboplastin time ex vivo, implying that it works as an anticoagulant in vivo (PubMed:22796577). It also inhibits the early steps of the alternative pathway of complement by direct binding to the proconvertase C3b-B complex, by inhibiting activation of factor B and consequently the formation of the C3 convertase (PubMed:28912782).<ref>PMID:22796577</ref> <ref>PMID:28912782</ref> |
