Descriptor English: Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein C
Descriptor Spanish: Proteína C Asociada a Surfactante Pulmonar
Descriptor proteína C asociada a surfactante pulmonar
Entry term(s) proteína SP-C asociada a surfactante pulmonar
Scope note: Proteína asociada a surfactante pulmonar que juega un papel en la estabilidad alveolar, disminuyendo la tensión superficial en la interface aire-líquido. Se trata de una proteína unida a la membrana que constituye un 1-2 por ciento de la masa surfactante pulmonar. La proteína C asociada a surfactante pulmonar es uno de los péptiods más hidrofóbicos conocidos y contiene un dominio alfa-hélice con su segmento central poli-valina que se une a los fosfolípidos bicapa.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D037721
Scope note: A pulmonary surfactant associated protein that plays a role in alveolar stability by lowering the surface tension at the air-liquid interface. It is a membrane-bound protein that constitutes 1-2% of the pulmonary surfactant mass. Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein C is one of the most hydrophobic peptides yet isolated and contains an alpha-helical domain with a central poly-valine segment that binds to phospholipid bilayers.
