• Background: Factor P binds to microbial surfaces and binds and stabilizes the complement component 3- and complement component 5-convertase enzyme complexes. C3b then acts as an opsonin or initiates the complement pathway again creating a positive feedback loop which acts only on the bacterial cell, leaving the host cells unharmed. Deficiency of factor P makes the host more susceptible to bacterial infections, particularly to Neisseria species and meningococcal infections.
• Synonyms: CFP, PFC, Complement factor P
• Note: This antibody is reported to inhibit the function of factor P. Removal of Sodium Azide is recommended prior to use in functional assays.
