Complement decay-accelerating factor (DAF)

Target (abbrv.) DAF

Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL004556 (5069-9_3)
Entrez Gene Symbol CD55
UniProt ID P08174
UniProt Comment
  • This protein recognizes C4b and C3b fragments that condense with cell-surface hydroxyl or amino groups when nascent C4b and C3b are locally generated during C4 and c3 activation. Interaction of daf with cell-associated C4b and C3b polypeptides interferes with their ability to catalyze the conversion of C2 and factor B to enzymatically active C2a and Bb and thereby prevents the formation of C4b2a and C3bBb, the amplification convertases of the complement cascade.

All locus annotations are based on the sentinel SNP (rs12134133) and 78 proxy variant(s) that is/are in linkage disequilibrium r2 ≥ 0.8. Linkage disequilibrium is based on data from the 1000 Genomes Project, phase 3 version 5, European population and was retrieved using SNiPA's Block Annotation feature.
