Product name:Human C4a ELISA Kit
Description:
C4 plays a central role in the activation of the classical pathway of the complement system. Human complement component C4 is polymorphic at two loci, C4A and C4B. The C4A alleles carry the Rodgers (Rg) while the C4B alleles carry the Chido (Ch) blood group antigens. C4 (either allele A or B) protein is expressed as a single chain precursor which is proteolytically cleaved into a trimer of alpha, beta, and gamma chains prior to secretion.The alpha chain may be cleaved to release C4a anaphylatoxin (C4a), a mediator of local inflammation.
