Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 2.15Å Ligands: CL Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Disease CO8A_HUMAN Defects in C8A are a cause of complement component 8 deficiency type 1 (C8D1) [MIM:613790. A rare defect of the complement classical pathway associated with susceptibility to severe recurrent infections, predominantly by Neisseria gonorrhoeae or Neisseria meningitidis. Function CO8A_HUMAN 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. C8A inserts into the target membrane, but does not form pores by itself. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf.
