Involved in complement regulation. The dimerized forms have avidity for tissue-bound complement fragments and efficiently compete with the physiological complement inhibitor CFH.
Gene References into Functions
Novel genetic rearrangement generated from a heterozygous deletion spanning 146 Kbp involving multiple CFHR genes leading to a CFHR1-R5 hybrid protein. This deletion was found in four family members presenting with a familial dominant glomerulopathy.PMID:28729035
Higher serum FHR-5 levels were associated with a lack of response to immunosuppression, the presence of endocapillary hypercellularity, and histology scores of IgA nephropathy severity.PMID:28673452
Our study found that rare variants in CFHR5 may contribute to the genetic susceptibility to IgA Nephropathy, which suggests that CFHR5 is an IgA Nephropathy susceptibility genePMID:26825529
Next-generation sequencing of the CFH region identified putatively functional variants (missense, splice site and indel) on the four common haplotypes. We found no expression of any of the five CFH-related genes in the retina or RPE/Choroid/Sclera, in contrast to the liver, which is the main source of the circulating proteins. [CFHR5]PMID:27196323
Studies indicate that complement factor H-related proteins (FHR1-5) may enhance complement activation, with important implications for the role of these proteins in disease.PMID:25979655
In this study, we identify pentraxin 3 (PTX3) as a novel ligand of CFHR5PMID:25855355
At least two distinct intronic breakpoints within the CFHR5 gene can cause the same mutant CFHR5 protein and C3 glomerulopathy.PMID:24067434
A hybrid CFHR2-CFHR5 plasma protein, arising from a chromosomal deletion mutation stabilizes the C3 convertase and reduces factor H-mediated convertase decay.PMID:24334459
Recent investigations in London and Cyprus culminated in the identification of another autosomal dominant condition that presents with microscopic haematuria because of heterozygous mutations in the CFHR5 gene--{review}PMID:23402027

Describe the clinical course, significant variable expressivity, and marked gender difference regarding the development of chronic renal failure in familial C3 glomerulopathy associated with CFHR5 mutations.PMID:21566112
evidence for an inherited renal disease, endemic in Cyprus, characterised by microscopic and synpharyngitic macroscopic haematuria, renal failure and C3 glomerulonephritis; affected individuals have an internal duplication within the gene for CFHR5PMID:20800271
Study identified novel mutations in CFH, CFHR5, CFI, CFB and C3 in American patients with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome.PMID:20513133
Maps to between FHR-2 and the non-complement protein factor XIIIb at 1q32.PMID:12041828
FHR-5 shares properties of binding heparin and C-reactive protein and lipoprotein association with one or more of the other FHRs, but is unique among this family of proteins in possessing independent complement-regulatory activity.PMID:15879123
Identification of specific variants of variants of CFHR5 in membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis type II.PMID:16299065
CFHR5 genetic alterations may play a secondary role in the pathogenesis of haemolytic uraemic syndrome.PMID:17000000
No definitive pathogenic CFHR5 mutations have been found in any of 639 unrelated patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD), indicating that sequence variations in CFHR5 do not play a major role in determining AMD susceptibility.PMID:19365580
