background

The anaphylatoxin C5a is an extremely potent proinflammatory peptide produced during activation of the complement system. The structure of C5a includes a core region (N-terminal residues 1-63) consisting of four, antiparallel alpha-helices held together by three disulfide linkages and a structured C-terminal tail (residues 64-74).

molecular weight

The protein has a predicted MW of 9.37 kDa. The protein migrates to 13-14 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Protein names
Complement C5 (C3 and PZP-like alpha-2-macroglobulin domain-containing protein 4) [Cleaved into: Complement C5 beta chain; Complement C5 alpha chain; C5a anaphylatoxin; Complement C5 alpha' chain]
Gene names
C5,C5 CPAMD4
Mass
9606Da
Function
Activation of C5 by a C5 convertase initiates the spontaneous assembly of the late complement components, C5-C9, into the membrane attack complex. C5b has a transient binding site for C6. The C5b-C6 complex is the foundation upon which the lytic complex is assembled.; [C5a anaphylatoxin]: Derived from proteolytic degradation of complement C5, C5a anaphylatoxin is a mediator of local inflammatory process. Binding to the receptor C5AR1 induces a variety of responses including intracellular calcium release, contraction of smooth muscle, increased vascular permeability, and histamine release from mast cells and basophilic leukocytes (PubMed:8182049). C5a is also a potent chemokine which stimulates the locomotion of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and directs their migration toward sites of inflammation.
Subellular location
Secreted.
Structure
C5 precursor is first processed by the removal of 4 basic residues, forming two chains, beta and alpha, linked by a disulfide bond. C5 convertase activates C5 by cleaving the alpha chain, releasing C5a anaphylatoxin and generating C5b (beta chain + alpha' chain). Interacts with the tick complement inhibitors OmCI, RaCI1 and CirpT1 (PubMed:18536718, PubMed:27018802, PubMed:31871188). Interacts with cobra venom factor (CVF) (PubMed:21217642).; [C5a anaphylatoxin]: Interacts with C5AR1.; (Microbial infection) Interacts with Staphylococcus aureus protein SSL5.
