C9 Gene (Protein Coding)

Complement C9

GC05M039320
GIFtS:
44
This gene encodes the final component of the complement system. It participates in the formation of the Membrane Attack Complex (MAC). The MAC assembles on bacterial membranes to form a pore, permitting disruption of bacterial membrane organization. Mutations in this gene cause component C9 deficiency.

GeneCards Summary for C9 Gene

C9 (Complement C9) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with C9 include Complement Component 9 Deficiency and Macular Degeneration, Age-Related, 15. Among its related pathways are Complement and coagulation cascades and Amoebiasis. An important paralog of this gene is C8A.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Summary for C9 Gene

  • Constituent of the membrane attack complex (MAC) that plays a key role in the innate and adaptive immune response by forming pores in the plasma membrane of target cells (PubMed:9634479, PubMed:9212048, PubMed:26841934). C9 is the pore-forming subunit of the MAC (PubMed:4055801, PubMed:26841934, PubMed:30111885).

    Quaternary structure:
    • Component of the membrane attack complex (MAC). MAC assembly is initiated by proteolytic cleavage of C5 into C5a and C5b. C5b binds sequentially C6, C7, C8 and multiple copies of the pore-forming subunit C9 (PubMed:22832194). About 20 C9 chains oligomerize to give rise to a huge beta-barrel that forms a 100 Angstrom diameter pore in target membranes (PubMed:26841934, PubMed:30111885).

Post-translational modifications for C9 Gene

  • Thrombin cleaves factor C9 to produce C9a and C9b.
  • Phosphorylation sites are present in the extracellular medium.
  • Initially, positions and connectivity of disulfide bonds were based on peptide sequencing done for the human protein (PubMed:8603752). The crystal structures for the human and mouse proteins corrected the positions and connectivities of the disulfide bonds (PubMed:30111885). The distance between Cys-57 and Cys-94 in the monomeric mouse protein precludes formation of a disulfide bond, contrary to what is seen in the structure of the human polymeric form of the protein (Probable).
  • Glycosylation at Trp48, Trp51, Asn277, and Asn415
  • Modification sites at PhosphoSitePlus
  • Glycosylation from GlyConnect
