Cfp Gene Summary [Mouse]
Involved in complement activation, alternative pathway. Located in extracellular space and secretory granule. Is expressed in embryo; liver left lobe; and liver right lobe. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in X-linked properdin deficiency. Orthologous to human CFP (complement factor properdin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Cfp often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
