Summary
MBL2 (mannose binding lectin 2, HGNC:6922) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 10q21.1, encoding Mannose-binding protein C (P11226). Calcium-dependent lectin, which acts as a pattern recognition receptor that initiates the lectin pathway of the complement system, a cascade of proteins that leads to phagocytosis and breakdown of pathogens and signaling that strengthens the adaptive immune system.
This gene encodes the soluble mannose-binding lectin or mannose-binding protein found in serum. The protein encoded belongs to the collectin family and is an important element in the innate immune system. The protein recognizes and binds to mannose and N-acetylglucosamine on many microorganisms, including bacteria, yeast, and viruses including influenza virus, HIV and SARS-CoV. This binding activates the classical complement pathway. Deficiencies of this gene have been associated with susceptibility to autoimmune and infectious diseases.

Function. Calcium-dependent lectin, which acts as a pattern recognition receptor that initiates the lectin pathway of the complement system, a cascade of proteins that leads to phagocytosis and breakdown of pathogens and signaling that strengthens the adaptive immune system. Specifically recognizes and binds the mannose moiety of carbohydrates on the pathogen surface, activating the MASP1 serine protease and initiating the proteolytic cascade of the lectin complement pathway. Upon SARS coronavirus-2/SARS-CoV-2 infection, activates the complement lectin pathway which leads to the inhibition SARS-CoV-2 infection and a reduction of the induced inflammatory response. May bind DNA.
Subunit / interactions. Oligomeric complex of 3 or more homotrimers. Interacts with MASP1 and MASP2. Interacts with MEP1A and MEP1B and may inhibit their catalytic activity. Interacts with CR1 (via Sushi 24 and Sushi 25 domains). (Microbial infection) Interacts with SARS coronavirus-2/SARS-CoV-2 Spike glycoprotein homotrimer; the interaction is calcium-dependent and modulated by Spike glycoprotein glycosylation state.
Subcellular location. Secreted. Cell surface.
Tissue specificity. Plasma protein produced mainly in the liver.
Domain organisation. The coiled-coil domain mediates trimerization.
Polymorphism. Genetic variations in MBL2 influence susceptibility to hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection [MIM:610424]. Genetic variations in MBL2 may influence susceptibility to severe COVID-19 disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus infection. Genetic variations in MBL2 are responsible for mannose-binding protein deficiency [MIM:614372]. This condition is defined as MBL2 protein level of less than 100 ng/ml, is present in about 5% of people of European descent and in about 10% of sub-Saharan Africans. Most MBL2-deficient adults appear healthy, but low levels of MBL2 are associated with increased risk of infection in toddlers, in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, and in organ-transplant patients receiving immunosuppressive drugs, particularly recipients of liver transplants. There is an association between low levels of MBL2 and a defect of opsonization which results in susceptibility to frequent and chronic infections. Functional MBL2 deficiency may be associated with protection against tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium africanum but not by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, as observed in studies on Ghanaian patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.
