THE STRUCTURE OF SERUM AMYLOID P COMPONENT BOUND TO 0-PHOSPHO-THREONINE
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 19372378
Disease
[SAMP_HUMAN] Note=SAP is a precursor of amyloid component P which is found in basement membrane and associated with amyloid deposits.
Function
[SAMP_HUMAN] Can interact with DNA and histones and may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells. May also function as a calcium-dependent lectin.
About this Structure
2w08 is a 5 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
