Cd59a Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable complement binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of angiogenesis; negative regulation of fibroblast growth factor production; and negative regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of activation of membrane attack complex. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including Meckel's cartilage; nervous system; neural retina; skeleton; and testis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal carcinoma and ovarian cancer. Orthologous to human CD59 (CD59 molecule (CD59 blood group)).

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 Cd59a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
