The human anaphylatoxin C5a is a 74 residue glycopeptide which is generated by proteolytic cleavage of the complement factor C5 in the course of complement activation. A variety of biological effects evoked by C5a can be demonstrated, rendering this molecule an important mediartor of inflammation, with granulocytes and macrophages as the main target cells. All cellular responses to C5a are specifically mediated by interactions with the membrane bound C5a receptor, a seven transmembrane GTP binding coupled receptor that belongs to the rhodopsin supergene family. C5a receptor 1 expression has been reported in myeloid blood cells, brain, liver, lung, spleen, heart, kidney, and intestinal tract. ESTs have been isolated from B cell/lung/testis, nerve, and placenta libraries.Synonyms: C5AR1, C5a anaphylatoxin chemotactic receptor, C5a-R, C5aR, Complement Component 5a Receptor 1
