Background information
The complement pathway is an important host defense system that contributes to both innate and acquired immunity. There are three pathways of complement activation: the classical pathway, lectin pathway and alternative pathway. Complement protein Factor I is a key serine protease that modulates the complement cascade by regulating the levels of C3 convertases. It circulates in plasma as a heavily N-glycosylated heterodimer made up of two disulfide linked chains, each carrying three N-linked oligosaccharide chains that may have both structural and functional roles in the interactions with the natural substrate and the cofactor during catalysis. Factor I is a serine protease with a high degree of specificity for C3b and C4b. It requires protein cofactors for cleavage of these complement proteins; Factor H, CR1 or MCP are required for C3b cleavage, and C4bp or CR1 are required for C4b cleavage.

Advisory
Avoid freeze/thaw cycles as they may denaturate the polypeptide chains of the antibody, thus reducing its reactivity, specificity and sensitivity. For antibodies that are in liquid form or reconstituted lyophilized antibodies small amounts could become entrapped on the seal or the walls of the tube. Prior to use briefly centrifuge the vial to gather all the solution on the bottom.

Description
This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided. Antibody for research use. Aplha, transcription related growth factors and stimulating factors or repressing nuclear factors are complex subunits of proteins involved in cell differentiation. Complex subunit associated factors are involved in hybridoma growth, Eosinohils, eritroid proliferation and derived from promotor binding stimulating subunits on the DNA binding complex. NFKB 105 subunit for example is a polypetide gene enhancer of genes in B cells.

About
Polyclonals can be used for Western blot, immunohistochemistry on frozen slices or parrafin fixed tissues. The advantage is that there are more epitopes available in a polyclonal antiserum to detect the proteins than in monoclonal sera.
