The Ninth Component of Complement and the Pore-Forming Protein (Perforin 1) from Cytotoxic T Cells: Structural, Immunological, and Functional Similarities

Young, John Ding-E, Cohn, Zanvil A., Podack, Eckhard R.·1986·Science

Abstract

The ninth component of complement (C9) and the pore-forming protein (PFP or perforin) from cytotoxic T lymphocytes polymerize to tubular lesions having an internal diameter of 100 Å and 160 Å, respectively, when bound to lipid bilayers. Polymerized C9, assembled by slow spontaneous or rapid Zn 2+ -induced polymerization, and polyperforin, which is assembled only in the presence of Ca 2+ , constitute large aqueous pores that are stable, nonselective for solutes, and insensitive to changes of membrane potential. Monospecific polyclonal antibodies to purified C9 and PFP show cross-reactivity, suggesting structural homology between the two molecules. The structural and functional homologies between these two killer molecules imply an active role for pore formation during cell lysis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
