Crystal structure of the catalytic region of human MASP-2

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 15364579

Disease

[MASP2_HUMAN] Defects in MASP2 are the cause of MASP2 deficiency (MASPD) [MIM:613791]. MASPD is a disorder that results in autoimmune manifestations, recurrent severe infections, and chronic inflammatory disease.[1][2]

Function

[MASP2_HUMAN] Serum protease that plays an important role in the activation of the complement system via mannose-binding lectin. After activation by auto-catalytic cleavage it cleaves C2 and C4, leading to their activation and to the formation of C3 convertase.[3]

About this Structure

1q3x is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
