Involved in complement-mediated synapse pruning; glial cell activation; and nervous system development. Acts upstream of or within complement activation, classical pathway. Located in postsynapse. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is extrinsic component of postsynaptic membrane and extrinsic component of presynaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; lung; pancreas; and vestibular component mesenchyme. Used to study epilepsy and systemic lupus erythematosus.
