Product details

Human Complement Factor B (Ba fragment) SimpleStep ELISA® kit is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Complement Factor B (Ba fragment) protein in Serum, EDTA Plasma, Hep Plasma, Cell culture supernatant. Quantitate Human Complement Factor B (Ba fragment) with 23.3 pg/ml sensitivity.

SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:

-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
-Fully validated in biological samples
-96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips

A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Complement Factor B also known as factor B complement is an important protein in the immune system. It weighs about 93 kDa and mainly expresses in the liver though it also circulates in the blood. This protein plays an important role in the alternative pathway of complement activation. Upon activation factor B combines with complement C3b to form the C3bB complex which then turns into the C3 convertase. This converts more C3 into C3b amplifying the immune response.
Biological function summary

Complement Factor B serves as a serine protease that is essential in the body's defense mechanisms. It is an integral part of the C3/C5 convertase enzyme complex. When C3b binds to factor B complement it splits into Ba and Bb fragments. The Bb fragment becomes part of the C3 convertase structure on microbial surfaces facilitating greater immune defense. Factor B's action allows the body to rapidly respond to pathogens contributing to innate immunity by helping opsonize and clear pathogens.

Pathways

This protein participates chiefly in the alternative complement pathway. It interacts closely with other complement components such as factor C3 and factor D to promote this pathway. The cascade initiated by complement factor B targets pathogens for destruction and assists in inflammation processes. It ensures a quick response in eliminating infectious agents before the adaptive immune system gets activated linking the innate and adaptive immune responses.

Research links Complement Factor B to conditions like age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). In these disorders abnormal regulation or mutations in factor B can lead to excessive complement activation. For AMD this hyperactivity results in damage to retinal cells whereas in aHUS it causes issues in blood vessels and kidneys. Decay-accelerating factor and factor H also play notable roles here regulating this pathway to prevent overactivation that could harm healthy tissues.

Target data

Precursor of the catalytic component of the C3 and C5 convertase complexes of the alternative pathway of the complement system, a cascade of proteins that leads to phagocytosis and breakdown of pathogens and signaling that strengthens the adaptive immune system (PubMed : 3638964, PubMed : 624565, PubMed : 6554279, PubMed : 6919543, PubMed : 9748277). The alternative complement pathway acts as an amplification loop that enhances other complement pathways (classical, lectin and GZMK) by promoting formation of additional C3 and C5 convertases (PubMed : 3638964, PubMed : 624565, PubMed : 6554279, PubMed : 6919543, PubMed : 9748277). CFB is cleaved and activated by CFD to generate Ba and Bb chains; Bb chain constituting the catalytic component of the C3 and C5 convertases (PubMed : 6769474, PubMed : 9748277).. Complement factor B Bb. Serine protease component of the complement C3 and C5 convertase complexes of the alternative complement pathway (PubMed : 30643019, PubMed : 3638964, PubMed : 624565, PubMed : 6554279, PubMed : 6919543). Following cleavage and activation by factor D (CFD), forms the C3 convertase together with complement C3b (PubMed : 3638964, PubMed : 624565, PubMed : 6554279, PubMed : 6919543, PubMed : 9748277). As part of the C3 convertase, cleaves and activates C3 into C3a anaphylatoxin and C3b opsonin, the next components of the complement pathways (PubMed : 3638964, PubMed : 624565, PubMed : 6554279, PubMed : 6919543, PubMed : 9748277). When an additional complement C3b molecule binds to the C3 convertase, forms the C5 convertase, which cleaves and activates C5 into C5a anaphylatoxin and C5b component of the membrane attack complex (PubMed : 30643019, PubMed : 624565, PubMed : 6554279).. Complement factor B Ba. Involved in proliferation and differentiation of preactivated B-lymphocytes, rapid spreading of peripheral blood monocytes, stimulation of lymphocyte blastogenesis and lysis of erythrocytes.
