| NPTX2 | Neuronal pentraxin-2; Likely to play role in the modification of cellular properties that underlie long-term plasticity. Binds to agar matrix in a calcium-dependent manner (By similarity). (431 aa) | ||||
| NPTX1 | Neuronal pentraxin-1; May be involved in mediating uptake of synaptic material during synapse remodeling or in mediating the synaptic clustering of AMPA glutamate receptors at a subset of excitatory synapses. (432 aa) | ||||
| CRP | C-reactive protein(1-205); Displays several functions associated with host defense: it promotes agglutination, bacterial capsular swelling, phagocytosis and complement fixation through its calcium-dependent binding to phosphorylcholine. Can interact with DNA and histones and may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells. (224 aa) | ||||
| APCS | Serum amyloid P-component(1-203); Can interact with DNA and histones and may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells. May also function as a calcium-dependent lectin; Belongs to the pentraxin family. (223 aa) | ||||
| PTX3 | Pentraxin-related protein PTX3; Plays a role in the regulation of innate resistance to pathogens, inflammatory reactions, possibly clearance of self- components and female fertility. (381 aa) | ||||
