SERPING1 blocking peptide
SERPING1 Antibody (Center) Blocking Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a highly glycosylated plasma protein involved in the regulation of the complement cascade. Its protein inhibits activated C1r and C1s of the first complement component and thus regulates complement activation. Deficiency of this protein is associated with hereditary angioneurotic oedema (HANE). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same isoform.

Uniprot Description
SERPING1: a protein protease inhibitor (C1-inhibitor) that forms a proteolytically inactive stoichiometric complex with the C1r or C1s proteases. May play an important role in regulating complement activation, blood coagulation, fibrinolysis and the generation of kinins. Very efficient inhibitor of FXIIa. Mutations of the SERPING1 gene is associated with adult macular degeneration can also cause hereditary angioedema. Binds to E.coli stcE which allows localization of SERPING1 to cell membranes thus protecting the bacteria against complement-mediated lysis. Belongs to the serpin family.
