Contents

The structure of serum amyloid p component bound to phosphoethanolamine

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 21360619

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

3kqr is a 5 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
