FUNCTION: Cytotoxin and helminthotoxin. Also induces non-cytolytic histamine release from human basophils. Involved in antiparasitic defense mechanisms and immune hypersensitivity reactions. The proform acts as a proteinase inhibitor, reducing the activity of PAPPA. SUBUNIT: In pregnancy serum, the proform exists as a disulfide- linked 2:2 heterotetramer with PAPPA, as a disulfide-linked 2:2 heterotetramer with AGT, and as a complex (probably a 2:2:2 heterohexamer) with AGT and C3dg. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Bone marrow proteoglycan: Secreted. Note=The proform is secreted. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Eosinophil granule major basic protein: Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle. Note=The proform is secreted. The mature protein is found in the matrix of the eosinophil's large specific granule (crystalloid core). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: High levels of the proform in placenta and pregnancy serum; in placenta, localized to X cells of septa and anchoring villi. Lower levels in a variety of other tissues including kidney, myometrium, endometrium, ovaries, breast, prostate, bone marrow and colon. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Levels of the proform increase in serum and placenta during pregnancy. PTM: Nitrated. MISCELLANEOUS: Binds heparin. Does not bind calcium. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 C-type lectin domain.
