Function
(Microbial infection) Plays a minor role in fiber protein-mediated human adenovirus 55 infection; via its interaction with fiber protein. Plays a minor role in fiber protein-mediated human adenovirus 14a infection.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, acrosome inner membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein)
Tissue Specificity: Expressed by all cells except erythrocytes
Disease Association: Hemolytic uremic syndrome, atypical, 2 (AHUS2) : An atypical form of hemolytic uremic syndrome. It is a complex genetic disease characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, renal failure and absence of episodes of enterocolitis and diarrhea. In contrast to typical hemolytic uremic syndrome, atypical forms have a poorer prognosis, with higher death rates and frequent progression to end-stage renal disease. [Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Other genes may play a role in modifying the phenotype. Patients with CD46 mutations seem to have an overall better prognosis compared to patients carrying CFH mutations]
