 CRP ANTIBODY TARGET DESCRIPTION:
Synonym Names for CRP antibody: CRP; PTX1; C-reactive protein

Function: Displays several functions associated with host defense: it promotes agglutination, bacterial capsular swelling, phagocytosi and complement fixation through its calcium-dependent binding to phosphorylcholine. Can interact with DNA and histones and may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells.

Cofactor: Binds 2 calcium ions per subunit.

Subunit: Homopentamer. Pentaxin (or pentraxin) have a discoid arrangement of 5 noncovalently bound subunits.

Subcellular Location: Secreted protein.

Tissue Specificity: Found in plasma.

Induction: The concentration of CRP in plasma increases greatly during acute phase response to tissue injury, infection or other inflammatory stimuli. It is induced by IL-1 and IL-6.

Mass Spectrometry: MW=23028; METHOD=MALDI; RANGE=19-224; NOTE=Ref.13.

Mass Spectrometry: MW=22930; METHOD=MALDI; RANGE=19-223; NOTE=Ref.13.

Miscellaneous: This protein owes its name to its ability precipitate pneumococcal C-polysaccharide in the presence of calcium.

Similarity: Belongs to the pentaxin family.

Similarity: Contains 1 pentaxin domain.

C-reactive protein reacts with human.

OMIM: 123260; gene. [NCBI / EBI]
