- | + | '''Complement C3''' (CC3) activates the complement system which is part of the immune response. '''CC3''' is proteolytically cleaved by C3 convertase to '''C3a''' (residues 672-748) and '''C3b''' (residues 23-667, 749-1663). | |
+ | *'''C3a''' is a mediator of local inflammatory processes. | ||
+ | *'''C3b''' binds covalently to cell surface carbohydrates or immune aggregates. | ||
+ | *'''C3c''' is another C3b cleavage product residues: 23-664, 749-954, 1321-1663.<ref>PMID:11414361</ref> | ||
+ | *'''C3d''' is a fragment generated by C3b(residues 996-1287) which binds to antigens enhancing their uptake by B cells<ref>PMID:17337780</ref>. | ||
