ELISA - Anti-C3b / iC3b antibody [1H8] (AB231080)
96-well microtitre plates were coated overnight at 4°C with recombinant human C3, C3b, iC3b, and Factor H proteins, in duplicate at a concentration of 1μg/mL. Plates were blocked with 1% BSA in PBS-T (0.1% Tween®) for 1 hour before incubation with a 10-step 4x serial dilution of ab231080 from 10μg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature. Antibody binding was detected with Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (HRP) (ab6789) secondary antibody at a 1 in 10000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature. Plates were incubated with TMB ELISA substrate for 7 minutes prior to being stopped with Stop solution and absorbance measured at 450nm.

Western blot - Anti-C3b / iC3b antibody [1H8] (AB231080)
This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 55 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 5% milk before being incubated with ab231080 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Biological function summary
C3b acts as a critical mediator in the immune system by forming complexes with other complement proteins. It is part of the alternative and classical pathways of the complement system. C3b can also convert itself into iC3b after cleavage by factor I and iC3b continues to facilitate phagocytosis but with reduced ability to promote further complement activation. This conversion ensures homeostasis and regulation preventing overactivation of the immune system.
Pathways
C3b participates in both the classical and alternative pathways of the complement system. It associates with proteins such as factor B and factor D to form the C3bBb complex in the alternative pathway acting as a C3 convertase that amplifies response. In the classical pathway C3b enhances the activity of C5 convertase facilitating the formation of the membrane attack complex. These pathways are vital in maintaining immune surveillance and response to infections.
