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.
Physical Appearance
Sterile filtered solution.
Formulation
CFB-a solution (1mg/ml) contains Phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2.
Stability
CFB-a Human is stable at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen below -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
