Related Product Information for CRP recombinant protein

C-reactive protein (CRP) belongs to the pentaxin family. CRP is a secreted protein found in plasma. It can binds two calcium ions per subunit.CRP can promotes phagocytosis, bacterial capsular swelling, complement fixation and agglutination through its calcium-dependent binding to phosphorylcholine which expressed on the surface of dead or dying cells. It can activate the complement system via the C1Q complex. CRP can interact with DNA and histones. In addition, CRP may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the pentaxin family. It is involved in several host defense related functions based on its ability to recognize foreign pathogens and damaged cells of the host and to initiate their elimination by interacting with humoral and cellular effector systems in the blood. Consequently, the level of this protein in plasma increases greatly during acute phase response to tissue injury, infection, or other inflammatory stimuli. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

Uniprot Description

CRP: Displays several functions associated with host defense: it promotes agglutination, bacterial capsular swelling, phagocytosis and complement fixation through its calcium-dependent binding to phosphorylcholine. Can interact with DNA and histones and may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells. Belongs to the pentaxin family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
