== Disease ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CO5_HUMAN CO5_HUMAN] Defects in C5 are the cause of complement component 5 deficiency (C5D) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/609536 609536]. A rare defect of the complement classical pathway associated with susceptibility to severe recurrent infections, predominantly by Neisseria gonorrhoeae or Neisseria meningitidis.  Note=An association study of C5 haplotypes and genotypes in individuals with chronic hepatitis C virus infection shows that individuals homozygous for the C5_1 haplotype have a significantly higher stage of liver fibrosis than individuals carrying at least 1 other allele (PubMed:15995705).
== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CO5_HUMAN CO5_HUMAN] 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.  Derived from proteolytic degradation of complement C5, C5 anaphylatoxin is a mediator of local inflammatory process. It induces the contraction of smooth muscle, increases vascular permeability and causes histamine release from mast cells and basophilic leukocytes. C5a also stimulates the locomotion of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (chemokinesis) and direct their migration toward sites of inflammation (chemotaxis).

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Staphylococcus aureus secretes the SSL7 protein as part of its immune evasion strategy. The protein binds both complement C5 and IgA, yet it is unclear whether SSL7 cross-links these two proteins and, if so, what purpose this serves the pathogen. We have isolated a stable IgA-SSL7-C5 complex, and our crystal structure of the C5-SSL7 complex confirms that binding to C5 occurs exclusively through the C-terminal beta-grasp domain of SSL7 leaving the OB domain free to interact with IgA. SSL7 interacts with C5 &gt;70 A from the C5a cleavage site without inducing significant conformational changes in C5, and efficient inhibition of convertase cleavage of C5 is shown to be IgA dependent. Inhibition of C5a production and bacteriolysis are all shown to require C5 and IgA binding while inhibition of hemolysis is achieved by the C5 binding SSL7 beta-grasp domain alone. These results provide a conceptual and structural basis for the development of a highly specific complement inhibitor preventing only the formation of the lytic membrane attack complex without affecting the important signaling functions of C5a.
