C-reactive protein has several roles associated with host defence such as; promoting agglutination, bacterial capsular swelling, phagocytosis and complement fixation through its calcium-dependent binding to phosphorylcholine.
It can interact with DNA and histones and may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells.
COFACTOR: Binds 2 calcium ions per subunit.
C-reactive protein exists as a homopentamer.
There are 2 alternatively spliced isoforms.
C-reactive protein is found in plasma and its concentration increases greatly during acute phase response to tissue injury, infection or other inflammatory stimuli.
It is induced by IL-1 and IL-6.
Applications:Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot.
Other applications not tested.
