This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus. The mature form of Complement C5 is a disulfide-linked heterodimer composed of proteolytically cleaved α and β chain. Each α and β chain has a calculated MW of 73.3 kDa (β chain) and 114.7 kDa (α chain). The protein migrates as 76 kDa (β chain) and 116 kDa (α chain) under reducing conditions (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

Biological function summary
The activation of this target contributes significantly to inflammatory processes and host defense. It is part of the larger complement system where it aligns with other complement proteins like C3 and forms a pathway important for immune system functioning. C5 is integral to the terminal complement complex formation which results in the lysis of target cells. The cleavage product C5a has near-instant effects as a chemotactic agent recruiting other immune cells to sites of infection.
Pathways
The protein has a fundamental position in the classical and alternative complement pathways. These pathways converge at the level of C5 where its cleavage is necessary for further downstream effects. C5 interacts extensively with C3 in these pathways highlighting their joint role in amplifying the immune response. The membrane attack complex which C5 helps initiate is a vital endpoint in these pathways promoting the destruction of pathogen cell membranes.

General info
Function
Activation of C5 by a C5 convertase initiates the spontaneous assembly of the late complement components, C5-C9, into the membrane attack complex. C5b has a transient binding site for C6. The C5b-C6 complex is the foundation upon which the lytic complex is assembled.. C5a anaphylatoxin. Derived from proteolytic degradation of complement C5, C5a anaphylatoxin is a mediator of local inflammatory process. Binding to the receptor C5AR1 induces a variety of responses including intracellular calcium release, contraction of smooth muscle, increased vascular permeability, and histamine release from mast cells and basophilic leukocytes (PubMed : 8182049). C5a is also a potent chemokine which stimulates the locomotion of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and directs their migration toward sites of inflammation.
