Abstract excerpt
C1-Inh is a serpin that inhibits serine proteases from the complement and the coagulation pathway. C1-Inh consists of a serpin domain and a unique N-terminal domain and is heavily glycosylated. Non-functional mutants of C1-Inh can give insight into the inhibitory mechanism of C1-Inh. This review describes a novel 3D model of C1-Inh, based on a newly developed homology modelling method. This model gives insight...
