Summary
CFP (complement factor properdin, HGNC:8864) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xp11.23, encoding Properdin (P27918). A positive regulator of the alternate pathway (AP) of complement.
This gene encodes a plasma glycoprotein that positively regulates the alternative complement pathway of the innate immune system. This protein binds to many microbial surfaces and apoptotic cells and stabilizes the C3- and C5-convertase enzyme complexes in a feedback loop that ultimately leads to formation of the membrane attack complex and lysis of the target cell. Mutations in this gene result in two forms of properdin deficiency, which results in high susceptibility to meningococcal infections. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified.

Function. A positive regulator of the alternate pathway (AP) of complement. It binds to and stabilizes the C3- and C5-convertase enzyme complexes. Inhibits CFI-CFH mediated degradation of Complement C3 beta chain (C3b).
Subunit / interactions. In plasma, properdin exists as dimers, trimers or tetramers in the relative proportions of 26:54:20. Interacts with the pro-C3-convertase enzyme complex (C3b-Bb) comprised of Complement C3 beta chain (C3b) and the Complement factor B Bb fragment (Bb), where it binds (via its TSP type-1 5 domain) with C3b and Bb. This interaction stabilizes the complex and allows it to become the active C3-convertase enzyme complex (C3b-Bb-FP). Interacts with C3b. Interacts with CFB.
Subcellular location. Secreted.
Disease relevance. Properdin deficiency (PFD) [MIM:312060] Results in higher susceptibility to bacterial infections; especially to meningococcal infections. Three phenotypes have been reported: complete deficiency (type I), incomplete deficiency (type II), and dysfunction of properdin (type III). The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Domain organisation. TSP type-1 domain 0 binds to TSP type-1 domain 4, and TSP type-1 domain 1 binds to TSP type-1 domain 6. These interactions mediate multimerization.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 47 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.
