Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** The C1QC gene is a single-exon gene that codes for a 216-amino acid protein. The protein is a subunit of the C1q complex, which is composed of three subunits (C1qA, C1qB, and C1qC). The C1q complex recognizes and binds to specific ligands, such as antibodies and pathogens, triggering the classical complement activation pathway. The C1QC subunit is essential for the formation of the C1q complex and the subsequent activation of the complement cascade. **Pathways and Functions:** The C1QC gene is involved in several key pathways, including: 1. **Classical Complement Activation Pathway:** The C1QC gene is a critical component of the classical complement activation pathway, which is triggered by the recognition of pathogens or foreign particles by the C1q complex. 2. **Immune Response:** The C1QC gene is significantly expressed in immune cells, including macrophages and dendritic cells, which are essential for the recognition and phagocytosis of pathogens. 3. **Innate Immunity:** The C1QC gene plays a role in the innate immune response, which provides the first line of defense against pathogens. 4. **Extracellular Matrix:** The C1QC gene is also involved in the regulation of the extracellular matrix, particularly in the context of collagen trimer formation. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of the C1QC gene has been implicated in several diseases, including: 1. **Autoimmune Disorders:** The C1QC gene has been linked to autoimmune disorders, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). 2. **Inflammatory Conditions:** The C1QC gene has been implicated in inflammatory conditions, such as atherosclerosis and cancer. 3. **Neurological Disorders:** The C1QC gene has been linked to neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and multiple sclerosis. In conclusion, the C1QC gene plays a crucial role in the classical complement activation pathway and is significantly expressed in immune cells. Dysregulation of the C1QC gene has been implicated in several diseases, highlighting the importance of this gene in maintaining immune homeostasis and preventing disease. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms by which the C1QC gene regulates the complement cascade and to explore its potential as a therapeutic target for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory disorders.
