Complement C3a Protein, Bovine (His-SUMO)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

Complement C3/C3a proteins play a key role in initiating the complement system, serving as substrates for C3 convertase in both the classical and alternative pathways. Upon activation, C3 undergoes proteolytic cleavage, yielding C3b, which is covalently bound to surface or immune aggregates. Complement C3a Protein, Bovine (His-SUMO) is the recombinant bovine-derived Complement C3/C3a protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His, N-SUMO labeled tag.

Description

Complement C3/C3a proteins play a key role in initiating the complement system, serving as substrates for C3 convertase in both the classical and alternative pathways. Upon activation, C3 undergoes proteolytic cleavage, yielding C3b, which is covalently bound to surface or immune aggregates. Complement C3a Protein, Bovine (His-SUMO) is the recombinant bovine-derived Complement C3/C3a protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His, N-SUMO labeled tag.

Background

C3 assumes a pivotal role in the initiation of the complement system, serving as a substrate for C3 convertase in both the classical and alternative pathways. Upon activation, C3 undergoes proteolytic cleavage, generating C3b, which can covalently bind to cell surface carbohydrates or immune aggregates through its reactive thioester moiety. Concurrently, the anaphylatoxin C3a is produced as a result of C3 degradation, functioning as a mediator in local inflammatory processes. C3a induces smooth muscle contraction, enhances vascular permeability, and stimulates histamine release from mast cells and basophilic leukocytes. Additionally, in chronic inflammation, C3a acts as a chemoattractant for neutrophils.
