Factor B is a component of the alternative pathway of complement activation. The protein consists of a single polypeptide chain of molecular mass 93 kDa, and has a concentration in plasma of approximately 200 µg/mL. Factor B is cleaved by factor D into the Ba component (30 kDa) and the Bb (63 kDa). Together with C3b, Bb forms the alternative pathway C3 convertase C3bBb (1).
Complement factor B purified from human plasma and adsorbed to aluminum hydroxide gel
HYB 008-06 is specific for the Ba fragment of human factor B.
Differs from that of HYB 008-02, HYB 008-04 and HAV 005-02.
HYB 008-06 reacts strongly with human factor B. A strong reaction is seen when coated directly onto the microtiter well and also when used as a biotinylated detection antibody in sandwich ELISA with a polyclonal capture antibody against factor B (e.g. Dako A0343). In Western blotting after SDS-PAGE, HYB 008-06 reacts with the Ba fragment of factor B in its non-reduced form only.
