Biological function summary
Ficolin-3 acts as an essential player in the immune response contributing to pathogen recognition and clearance. It forms a complex with other components to activate the complement pathway particularly the lectin pathway. Ficolin-3 binds to carbohydrate patterns on the surface of pathogens leading to opsonization and clearance. This activity highlights its function as a defense mechanism against infections and its role in recognizing altered cells.
Pathways
Ficolin-3 facilitates the activation of the lectin complement pathway. This pathway is important for innate immune defense and involves several other proteins including mannose-binding lectin (MBL) and MASP-2 which are connected with ficolin-3 in mediating complement activation. The engagement of ficolin-3 in this pathway highlights its importance in identifying and eliminating pathogens effectively.

General info
Function
Calcium-dependent lectin, which acts as a pattern recognition receptor that initiates the lectin 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 : 11907111, PubMed : 15804047, PubMed : 17215869, PubMed : 26133042). Specifically recognizes and binds carbohydrates on the pathogen surface, activating the MASP1 serine protease and initiating the proteolytic cascade of the lectin complement pathway (PubMed : 15804047, PubMed : 17215869, PubMed : 26133042). Specifically binds N-Acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc,) GalNAc (N-acetylgalactosamine) and D-fucose on the surface of pathogens, as well as mono/oligosaccharide and lipopolysaccharides from S.typhimurium and S.minnesota (PubMed : 17215869).
