Factor B, which is part of the alternate pathway of the complement system, is cleaved by factor D into 2 fragments: Ba and Bb. Bb, a serine protease, then combines with complement factor 3b to generate the C3 or C5 convertase. It has also been implicated in proliferation and differentiation of preactivated B-lymphocytes, rapid spreading of peripheral blood monocytes, stimulation of lymphocyte blastogenesis and lysis of erythrocytes. Ba inhibits the proliferation of preactivated B-lymphocytes. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa23-761 from mouse Complement Factor B, fused to 6xHis-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in E. coli.
