Non-synonymous polymorphisms in the FCN1 gene determine ligand-binding ability and serum levels of M-ficolin.
<h4>Background</h4>The innate immune system encompasses various recognition molecules able to sense both exogenous and endogenous danger signals arising from pathogens or damaged host cells. One such pattern-recognition molecule is M-ficolin, which is capable of activating the complement...
