Description: C5 is the fifth component of complement, which plays an important role in inflammatory and cell killing processes. This protein is comprised of alpha and beta polypeptide chains that are linked by a disulfide bridge. An activation peptide, C5a, which is an anaphylatoxin that possesses potent spasmogenic and chemotactic activity, is derived from the alpha polypeptide via cleavage with a convertase. The C5b macromolecular cleavage product can form a complex with the C6 complement component, and this complex is the basis for formation of the membrane attack complex, which includes additional complement components.
Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 253-281 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for this C5 antibody.
Storage: Aliquot the C5 antibody and store frozen at -20 °C or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
