All conjugates are generated using validated conjugation protocols and meet strict degree of labeling (F/P) specifications; additional information is available upon request. The antibody concentration is provided on the individual product label.
  
  For specialized conjugation needs, like large quantities, specific concentrations, and defined F/P ratios, bulk and custom antibody conjugation services are available.
• Immunogen: Purified C3d from human plasma
• Specificity: NB100-65510 is specific for human complement component 3d (C3d), a 33kDa polypeptide fragment generated over the course of complement activation where complement 3 (C3) convertases cleave C3 to C3b, which is further degraded into iC3b and C3dg/C3d. C3d is involved in the regulation of many aspects of the immune response, including antigen processing and presentation. The C3d/antigen complex mediates B cell activation by simultaneously binding antigen-specific surface bound immunoglobulin and CD21, lowering the complement activation threshold. C3 is crucial in the induction of tolerance generated when an antigen is introduced into immunoprivileged sites and this is exploited by pathogens and cancer cells to evade the immune system by inhibiting complement activation.

Background

C3d is a fragment of the major complement protein C3, C3d is formed as a result of the deactivation of C3b.Factor I in the presence of cofactors cleaves C3b to form iC3b and C3f, Factor I and/or other proteasesthen cleaves iC3b to form C3c and C3dg. C3dg is then further cleaved by tryptic enzymes to C3g andC3d. The C3 fragments are then eliminated from circulation by phagocytic cells in the liver. C3d has amolecular weight of 34kDa. Normally C3d is present in trace amounts in plasma, however, in diseasestates where rapid complement consumption is occurring levels of C3d can be elevated.
