BACKGROUND

  • Introduction
  • Pexelizumab is a drug designed to reduce side effects of coronary artery bypass grafting and angioplasty, among other types of cardiac surgery. It is a single chain variable fragment of a monoclonal antibody targeted against component 5 of the complement system.
  • Antigen Description
  • C5 is synthesised in the liver as a single polypeptide chain. Before secretion the molecule is glycosylated and secreted into plasma as a 190kDa glycoprotein consisting of a disulphide linked alpha-chain (115kDa) and beta-chain (75kDa). C5 precursor is first processed by the removal of 4 basic residues, forming two chains, beta and alpha, linked by a disulfide bond. C5 convertase activates C5 by cleaving the alpha chain, releasing C5a anaphylatoxin and generating C5b (beta chain + alpha' chain).
  • Function
  • C5a anaphylatoxin chemotactic receptor binding; chemokine activity; endopeptidase inhibitor activity; receptor binding;
  • Synonyms
  • C5; complement component 5; complement C5; CPAMD4; anaphylatoxin C5a analog; C3 and PZP-like alpha-2-macroglobulin domain-containing protein 4; FLJ17816; FLJ17822; MGC142298;
