C8g - complement component 8, gamma polypeptide Gene

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 69379

Summary

This gene encodes a secreted protein that is a core component of the complement 8 (C8) complex. C8 is part of the membrane attack complex which participates in the innate immune response against Bacterial pathogens. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]
