Tissue, system or organ

GO term

Gene name

Encoded protein – expression and function

Immune system

Complement activation

C1S

Serine protease that is a major constituent of human complement subcomponent C1

C4BPA, C4BPB

Controls the classical pathway of complement activation

C6

Component of the complement cascade

Mucosal immune response

PLA2G1B

Secreted member of the phospholipase A2 (PLA2) class of enzymes produced by the pancreatic acinar cells

RAB17

The small Rab GTPases are key regulators of intracellular membrane trafficking from the formation of transport vesicles to their fusion with membranes

Blood tissue

Blood coagulation

APOH

Binds to cardiolipin

FGB, FGG

Plays a role in blood clotting and platelet aggregation

HRG

Binds to numerous ligands and modulates immunity, vascularization and coagulation processes

PDGFA

Regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell migration, survival and chemotaxis

PROC, PROZ

Regulation of blood coagulation

Fibrin clot formation

APOH

Binds to cardiolipin

FGB, FGG

Important for blood clotting and platelet aggregation

Complement and coagulation cascade

F7

Initiates the extrinsic pathway of blood coagulation

F9

Participates in the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation

PLG

Plasminogen is activated by proteolysis and converted to plasmin and angiostatin

Erythrocyte differentiation

AHSP

Prevents the harmful aggregation of alpha-haemoglobin during normal erythroid cell development

KLF1

Transcription regulator of erythrocyte development that probably serves as a general switch factor during erythropoiesis

Digestion

Fat digestion and absorption; glycerolipid metabolism

MOGAT3

Catalyses the formation of diacylglycerol from 2-monoacylglycerol and fatty acyl-CoA

Excretory system

Regulation of kidney development

FAT4

Plays a role in the orientation of cell divisions and tubule elongation during kidney development
