Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Serine protease activity**: MASP2 exhibits serine protease activity, which is essential for its function in the complement system. 2. **Lectin pathway activation**: MASP2 is involved in the activation of the lectin pathway of complement, which is triggered by the binding of mannose-binding lectin (MBL) to carbohydrate structures on the surface of pathogens. 3. **Classical pathway activation**: MASP2 also participates in the activation of the classical pathway of complement, which is triggered by the binding of C1q to antibody-coated pathogens. 4. **Complement component C4b binding**: MASP2 binds to complement component C4b, which is a critical step in the activation of the complement cascade. 5. **Proteolysis**: MASP2 exhibits proteolytic activity, which is essential for the cleavage of complement components and the generation of active fragments. **Pathways and Functions:** The complement system is a complex network of proteins that work together to eliminate pathogens from the body. MASP2 plays a crucial role in the activation of the lectin and classical pathways of complement, which are essential for the recognition and elimination of pathogens. The following pathways and functions are associated with MASP2: 1. **Lectin pathway of complement activation**: MASP2 is activated by the binding of MBL to carbohydrate structures on the surface of pathogens, leading to the cleavage of C4 and C2, and the generation of active fragments. 2. **Classical pathway of complement activation**: MASP2 is activated by the binding of C1q to antibody-coated pathogens, leading to the cleavage of C4 and C2, and the generation of active fragments. 3. **Complement cascade**: MASP2 participates in the activation of the complement cascade, which is a series of reactions that lead to the generation of active fragments and the elimination of pathogens. 4. **Opsonization**: MASP2 contributes to the opsonization of pathogens, which is the process by which pathogens are marked for destruction by the immune system. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of the complement system, including the MASP2 gene, has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Infectious diseases**: MASP2 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various infectious diseases, including sepsis, pneumonia, and urinary tract infections. 2. **Autoimmune disorders**: MASP2 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disorders, including systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis. 3. **Cancer**: MASP2 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of cancer, including lung cancer and breast cancer. 4. **SARS-CoV-2 infection**: MASP2 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 infection, including the activation of the complement system and the modulation of innate and adaptive immune responses. In conclusion, MASP2 is a critical component of the complement system, and its dysregulation has significant implications for human health. Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms of MASP2 and its role in disease, as well as the development of therapeutic strategies to modulate its activity.
