Figure 1 Blood CRP Circulates as a Pentamer
One face of the pentamer supports multipoint attachment to ligands and ligand-decorated surfaces; the other face binds C1q and Fc R. Only some of the many C-reactive protein (CRP) ligands are listed. HDL = high-density lipoprotein; oxLDL = oxidized low-density lipoprotein.
