Factor H protects host cells from injury resulting from unrestrained complement activation. CFH regulates complement activation on self cells by possessing both cofactor activity for the Factor I mediated C3b cleavage, and decay accelerating activity against the alternative pathway C3 convertase, C3bBb. CFH protects self cells from complement activation but not bacteria\/viruses. Due to the central role that CFH plays in the regulation of complement, there are many clinical implications arrising from aberrant CFH activity. Mutations in the Factor H gene are associated with severe and diverse diseases including the rare renal disorders hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) also termed dense deposit disease (DDD), membranoproliferative glomuleronephritis type II or dense deposit disease, as well as the more frequent retinal disease age related macular degeneration (AMD). In addition to its complement regulatory activities, factor H has multiple physiological activities and 1) acts as an extracellular matrix component, 2) binds to cellular receptors of the integrin type, and 3) interacts with a wide selection of ligands, such as the C-reactive protein, thrombospondin, bone sialoprotein, osteopontin, and heparin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSequence: Ser860-Arg1231\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePurity: \u0026gt; 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFormulation: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.\u003cbr\u003e\nNormally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.\u003cbr\u003e\nPlease refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReconstitution: Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEndotoxin: Please contact us for more information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCalculated MW: 40.81 kDa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eObserved MW: 60 kDa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStorage: Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80℃.
