:The CRP gene is located on chromosome 1q23. It is composed of two exons and one intron. This gene is regulated by interleukin-6, the principal inducer of the gene during the acute phase. CRP is secreted by hepatocytes. | :The CRP gene is located on chromosome 1q23. It is composed of two exons and one intron.

:The Human CRP belongs to the pentraxin family of proteins having five identical, non-covalently associated subunits that form a symmetrical homopentameric ring. The pentraxin family is highly conserved in evolution. | :The Human CRP belongs to the pentraxin family of proteins having five identical, non-covalently associated subunits that form a symmetrical homopentameric ring.
