Measurement of soluble CD59 in CSF in demyelinating disease: Evidence for an intrathecal source of soluble CD59 [PDF]

open access: yesMultiple Sclerosis Journal, 2018
Background: CD59, a broadly expressed glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein, is the principal cell inhibitor of complement membrane attack on cells. In the demyelinating disorders, multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), elevated complement protein levels, including ...

Molecular pathogenesis of human CD59 deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesNeurology Genetics, 2018
To characterize all 4 mutations described for CD59 congenital deficiency.The 4 mutations, p.Cys64Tyr, p.Asp24Val, p.Asp24Valfs*, and p.Ala16Alafs*, were described in 13 individuals with CD59 malfunction. All 13 presented with recurrent Guillain-Barré syndrome or chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, recurrent strokes, and chronic hemolysis.

Bioorthogonal Tools for Ethanolamine Lipids and Protein Conjugates

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
An alkyne‐tagged ethanolamine analog (AlkEA) enables bioorthogonal, metabolic labeling of endogenous phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and its protein modifications. AlkEA is incorporated into PE via the Kennedy pathway, allowing CuAAC‐based visualization of PE and affinity capture of PE‐conjugated LC3, ubiquitin, and GPI‐anchored proteins.

Structural basis for membrane attack complex inhibition by CD59

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
CD59 protects human cells from damage by the MAC immune pore. The authors show how CD59 inhibits MAC, by deflecting pore-forming β-hairpins of complement proteins.

Defining the CD59-C9 Binding Interaction [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
CD59 is a membrane glycoprotein that regulates formation of the cytolytic membrane attack complex (MAC or C5b-9) on host cell membranes. It functions by binding to C8 (alpha chain) and C9 after their structural rearrangement during MAC assembly. Previous studies indicated that the CD59 binding site in C9 was located within a 25-residue disulfide-bonded

Structural Basis for Recognition of the Pore-Forming Toxin Intermedilysin by Human Complement Receptor CD59

open access: yesCell Reports, 2013

An update on the CD59 blood group system [PDF]

open access: yesImmunohematology, 2019
Abstract This update of the CD59 blood group system (Weinstock C, Anliker M, von Zabern I. CD59: a long-known complement inhibitor has advanced to a blood group system. Immunohematology 2015;31:145–51) increases the number of reported patients with CD59 deficiency from 10 to 14.
