NCBI Description
C3a is an anaphylatoxin released during activation of the complement system. The protein encoded by this gene is an orphan G protein-coupled receptor for C3a. Binding of C3a by the encoded receptor activates chemotaxis, granule enzyme release, superoxide anion production, and bacterial opsonization. [provided by RefSeq, May 2016]

Product Notes
The Human C3a c3ar1 (Catalog #
AAA2088532) is a DIY ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2088532 DIY ELISA Kit recognizes Human C3a. Main materials for "Do It Yourself ELISA Kit". Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the C3a c3ar1 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 3a (C3a), DIY ELISA Kit" 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.
