In vitro generation and bioactivity evaluation of C-reactive protein intermediate.

The conformational conversion of pentameric C-reactive protein (pCRP) to monomeric CRP (mCRP) has been shown to play important roles in the action of CRP in inflammation regulation. In vivo studies revealed the origin of mCRP and provided insights into how pCRP dissociation affected its functions. H...
