This gene encodes a serine protease that functions as a component of the lectin pathway of complement activation.
The complement pathway plays an essential role in the innate and adaptive immune response.
The encoded protein is synthesized as a zymogen and is activated when it complexes with the pathogen recognition molecules of lectin pathway, the mannose-binding lectin and the ficolins.
This protein is not directly involved in complement activation but may play a role as an amplifier of complement activation by cleaving complement C2 or by activating another complement serine protease, MASP-2.
The encoded protein is also able to cleave fibrinogen and factor XIII and may may be involved in coagulation.
A splice variant of this gene which lacks the serine protease domain functions as an inhibitor of the complement pathway.
Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
