C9

Gene Information
 
Gene Symbol
C9
 
Aliases
ARMD15, C9D
 
Entrez Gene ID
735
 
Gene Name
Complement C9
 
Chromosomal Location
5p13.1
 
HGNC ID
 
Summary
This gene encodes the final component of the complement system. It participates in the formation of the Membrane Attack Complex (MAC). The MAC assembles on bacterial membranes to form a pore, permitting disruption of bacterial membrane organization. Mutations in this gene cause component C9 deficiency.

Protein Information
 
Protein Name
Complement component C9, complement component 9
 
Function
Constituent of the membrane attack complex (MAC) that plays a key role in the innate and adaptive immune response by forming pores in the plasma membrane of target cells (PubMed:9634479, PubMed:9212048, PubMed:26841934). C9 is the pore-forming subunit of the MAC (PubMed:4055801, PubMed:26841934, PubMed:30111885).
