Post Translational Modifications | O-glycosylated with core 1 or possibly core 8 glycans. |
Function | This protein is a minor sialoglycoprotein in human erythrocyte membranes. The blood group Gerbich antigens and receptors for Plasmodium falciparum merozoites are most likely located within the extracellular domain. Glycophorin-C plays an important role in regulating the stability of red cells. |
