Related Product Information for C8a recombinant protein
C8 is a component of the complement system and contains three polypeptides, alpha, beta and gamma. This gene encodes the alpha subunit of C8. C8 participates in the formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC). The MAC assembles on bacterial membranes to form a pore, permitting disruption of bacterial membrane organization. Mutations in this gene cause complement C8 alpha-gamma deficiency.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes the alpha subunit of complement component C8 that participates in the assembly of the complement membrane attack complex. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate the alpha subunit, which associates with the beta and gamma subunits to form a trimeric complement component, C8. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms that may undergo similar proteolytic processing. This gene is located adjacent to the gene encoding the beta subunit. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

Uniprot Description

Constituent of the membrane attack complex (MAC) that plays a key role in the innate and adaptive immune response by forming pores in the plasma membrane of target cells. C8A inserts into the target membrane, but does not form pores by itself ().

It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Complement component C8 alpha chain (C8a), 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.
