What are the advantages of a recombinant monoclonal antibody?
This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Conjugation ready
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

Sandwich ELISA
The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.

Supplementary information

Factor D also known as complement factor D or CFD protein is a serine protease involved in the alternative pathway of the complement system. It plays a mechanical role by cleaving factor B when it is bound to C3b forming the active C3 convertase C3bBb. This enzyme is relatively small with a mass of approximately 28.5 kDa. It is mainly expressed in adipose tissue but it can also be found in the blood plasma.
Biological function summary

Factor D aids the immune system's ability to destroy pathogens. As part of the alternative complement pathway it acts independently and does not associate with larger protein complexes. Its activation of the alternative pathway leads to direct lysis of pathogens therefore contributing to innate immunity.

Pathways

Factor D participates specifically in the complement activation pathway particularly in the innate immune response. It works closely with other proteins in the complement system such as factor B and C3. This pathway enhances the opsonization and removal of microbes and damaged cells acting in parallel with the classical pathway of the complement system.

Abnormal function or regulation of factor D can relate to chronic inflammation and age-related macular degeneration. Disorders involving factor D may involve excess complement activation leading to tissue damage. The role of factor D in these diseases often connects it to other key complement components such as C3 and factor B which can also become problematic when dysregulated.

Target data

Factor D cleaves factor B when the latter is complexed with factor C3b, activating the C3bbb complex, which then becomes the C3 convertase of the alternate pathway. Its function is homologous to that of C1s in the classical pathway.
