Accepted name: |
complement factor I |
Reaction: |
Inactivates complement subcomponents C3b, iC3b and C4b by proteolytic cleavage |
Other name(s): |
complement component C3b inactivator; C3b inactivator; C3b/C4b inactivator; C3bINA; complement C3b/C4b inactivator; complement C4b inactivator; conglutinogen-activating factor C; complement C3b inactivator; factor I; complement C4bi |
Comments: |
Cleavage of complement subcomponent C3b requires its binding to cofactor factor H or complement receptor CR1; cleavage of iC3b requires complement receptor CR1; cleavage of C4b requires C4b-binding protein. In peptidase family S1 (trypsin family) |
