Complement C1s subcomponent (C1s)

Target (abbrv.) C1s
Target (full name) Complement C1s subcomponent
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL000311 (3590-8_3)
Entrez Gene Symbol C1S
UniProt ID P09871
UniProt Comment
  • C1s B chain is a serine protease that combines with C1q and C1r to form C1, the first component of the classical pathway of the complement system. C1r activates C1s so that it can, in turn, activate C2 and C4.

Complement factor H-related protein 5 (complement factor H-related 5)

Target (abbrv.) complement factor H-related 5
Target (full name) Complement factor H-related protein 5
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL006830 (3666-17_4)
Entrez Gene Symbol CFHR5
UniProt ID Q9BXR6
UniProt Comment
  • Involved in complement regulation. The dimerized forms have avidity for tissue-bound complement fragments and efficiently compete with the physiological complement inhibitor CFH.

All locus annotations are based on the sentinel SNP (rs6695321).

CFH or CFHR3 may regulate C1S.

This locus harbours a replicated trans-association to Complement C1s subcomponent (C1S). Cis-encoded proteins are CFH and CFHR3.

The information gathered here is a result of an attempt to keep track of all interesting information that we encountered while investigating these loci. Please bear in mind that the annotation given here is neither complete nor free of errors, and that all information provided here should be confirmed by additional literature research before being used as a basis for firm conclusions or further experiments.

SOMAscan assay update regarding Complement C1s subcomponent

According to a SOMAscan assay change log issued on 12/22/2016, the SOMAmer reagent 3590-8 (targeting Complement C1s subcomponent) was removed from the SOMAscan panel for the following reason: "Mass spectrometry identifies Complement Factor H as the protein enriched from plasma when the SOMAmer reagent 3590-8 is used for affinity capture."
