Complement Component 4b (C4b) Recombinant Protein | C4b recombinant protein
Recombinant Complement Component 4b (C4b)
(May be suitable for use in other assays to be determined by the end user.)
Store at 2-8 degree C for one month.
Aliquot and store at -80 degree C for 12 months.
Stability Test: The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
C4B: C4 plays a central role in the activation of the classical pathway of the complement system. It is processed by activated C1 which removes from the alpha chain the C4a anaphylatoxin. The remaining alpha chain fragment C4b is the major activation product and is an essential subunit of the C3 convertase (C4b2a) and the C5 convertase (C3bC4b2a) enzymes of the classical complement pathway. Defects in C4B are a cause of susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). A chronic, inflammatory and often febrile multisystemic disorder of connective tissue. It affects principally the skin, joints, kidneys and serosal membranes. It is thought to represent a failure of the regulatory mechanisms of the autoimmune system. Interindividual copy- number variation (CNV) of complement component C4 and associated polymorphisms result in different susceptibilities to SLE. The risk of SLE susceptibility has been shown to be significantly increased among subjects with only two copies of total C4. A high copy number is a protective factor against SLE. Defects in C4B are the cause of complement component 4B deficiency (C4BD). A rare defect of the complement classical pathway associated with the development of autoimmune disorders, mainly systemic lupus with or without associated glomerulonephritis.

Product Notes
The C4b c4b (Catalog #AAA2010348) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E. coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Recombinant Complement Component 4b (C4b) reacts with Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Complement Component 4b (C4b) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Positive Control, Immunogen, SDS-PAGE, WB. (May be suitable for use in other assays to be determined by the end user.) . Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the C4b c4b for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Complement Component 4b (C4b), Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
