Summary
CFHR1 (complement factor H related 1, HGNC:4888) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1q31.3, encoding Complement factor H-related protein 1 (Q03591). Involved in complement regulation.
This gene encodes a secreted protein belonging to the complement factor H protein family. It binds to Pseudomonas aeruginosa elongation factor Tuf together with plasminogen, which is proteolytically activated. It is proposed that Tuf acts as a virulence factor by acquiring host proteins to the pathogen surface, controlling complement, and facilitating tissue invasion. Mutations in this gene are associated with an increased risk of atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome.

Function. Involved in complement regulation. The dimerized forms have avidity for tissue-bound complement fragments and efficiently compete with the physiological complement inhibitor CFH. Can associate with lipoproteins and may play a role in lipid metabolism.
Subunit / interactions. Head-to-tail homodimer and heterodimer with CFHR2 or CFHR5. (Microbial infection) Interacts with C.albicans GPD2; the interaction is direct and leads to the degradation of C3.
Subcellular location. Secreted.
Tissue specificity. Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma.
Post-translational modifications. N-glycosylated. Two forms are observed; one with a single side chain and the other with two.
Disease relevance. Hemolytic uremic syndrome, atypical, 1 (AHUS1) [MIM:235400] An atypical form of hemolytic uremic syndrome. It is a complex genetic disease characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, renal failure and absence of episodes of enterocolitis and diarrhea. In contrast to typical hemolytic uremic syndrome, atypical forms have a poorer prognosis, with higher death rates and frequent progression to end-stage renal disease. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. A deletion encompassing CFHR1 and CFHR3 is associated with an increased risk of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome, likely due to a defective regulation of complement activation. Some patients carrying the deletion have serum anti-CFH autoantibodies.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 16 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
