MAC/Perforin domain; The membrane-attack complex (MAC) of the complement system forms transmembrane channels. These channels disrupt the phospholipid bilayer of target cells, leading to cell lysis and death. A number of proteins participate in the assembly of the MAC. Freshly activated C5b binds to C6 to form a C5b-6 complex, then to C7 forming the C5b-7 complex. The C5b-7 complex binds to C8, which is composed of three chains (alpha, beta, and gamma), thus forming the C5b-8 complex. C5b-8 subsequently binds to C9 and acts as a catalyst in the polymerization of C9. Active MAC has a subunit composition of C5b-C6-C7-C8-C9{n}. Perforin is a protein found in cytolytic T-cell and killer cells. In the presence of calcium, perforin polymerizes into transmembrane tubules and is capable of lysing, non-specifically, a variety of target cells. There are a number of regions of similarity in the sequences of complement components C6, C7, C8-alpha, C8-beta, C9 and perforin. The X-ray crystal structure of a MACPF domain reveals that it shares a common fold with bacterial cholesterol dependent cytolysins (pfam01289) such as perfringolysin O. Three key pieces of evidence suggests that MACPF domains and CDCs are homologous: Functional similarity (pore formation), conservation of three glycine residues at a hinge in both families and conservation of a complex core fold. The actual alignment was detected with superfamily member pfam01823: Pssm-ID: 460349 Cd Length: 211 Bit Score: 45.86 E-value: 1.61e-05
