Introduction
Complement Factor B, also known as CFB, encodes complement factor B which is a component of the alternative pathway of complement activation. Factor B circulates in the blood as a single chain polypeptide. Once the alternative pathway is activated it is cleaved by complement factor D yielding the noncatalytic chain Ba and the catalytic subunit Bb. The active subunit Bb is a serine protease which connects with C3b to form the alternative pathway C3 convertase. Also, Bb is involved in the proliferation of preactivated B lymphocytes, while Ba inhibits their proliferation.
Description
CFB Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 528 amino acids (260-764) and having a molecular mass of 59.4 kDa.
CFB is fused to a 23 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
