Protein Function
May function in innate immunity through activation of the lectin complement pathway. Calcium-dependent and GlcNAc- binding lectin. Has affinity with GalNAc, GlcNAc, D-fucose, as mono/oligosaccharide and lipopolysaccharides from S.typhimurium and S.minnesota. .
Background
Ficolin-3, also known as HAKA1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FCN3 gene. It is mapped to 1p36.11. The protein can activate the complement pathway in association with MASPs and sMAP, thereby aiding in host defense through the activation of the lectin pathway. Ficolin-3 is expressed as a 35-kD protein that reacts with systemic lupus erythematosus sera. Ficolin-3 does not bind fibronectin (FN1), elastin (ELN), or zymosan, and the lectin activity of the Ficolin-3 is calcium independent. Homozygosity for the variant in the FCN3 gene results in a recessive complement deficiency syndrome.
