RECEPTORS ON CELL MEMBRANE FOR COMPLEMENT COMPONENTS Flashcards
Cofactor for Factor I; mediates transport
of immune complexes
CR1 (CD 35)
B- cell co-receptor for antigen with
CD19
CR2 (CD 21)
Adhesion and increased activity of
phagocytic cells
CR3 (CD11b / CD 18)
&
CR4 (CD11c / CD 18)
Dissociates C2b or Bb from binding
sites, thus preventing formation of C3
convertase
Decay-accelerating factor
Prevents insertion of C9 into cell
membrane
Membrane - Inhibitor of Reactive Lysis
Cofactor for Factor I cleavage of C3b
and C4b
MCP (CD 46)
What is MW of CD 35?
165,000 - 280,000
What is MW of CD 46?
50,000 - 70,000
What is MW of CD 55?
70,000
it binds C3b and C4b but has the greatest
affinity for C3b
CD 35
It is the most efficient cofactor for factor
I - mediated cleavage of C3b
Membrane cofactor protein (MCP)
It is capable of dissociating both classical and
alternative pathway C3 convertase
CD 55 (DAF)
Found on virtually all epithelial and
endothelial cells except erythrocytes.
