C8G

SYNONYMS
Complement component 8 gamma polypeptide, C8C, complement component C8 gamma chain, MGC142186.

INTRODUCTION
C8, a component of the complement system consists of three polypeptides C8A, C8B and C8G and takes part in the formation of Membrane Attack Complex (MAC). Patients with C8 deficiency are exposed to several bacteria infections. C8G, a member of the lipocalin family and calycin superfamily, is a secreted protein that can bind retinol. C8G is created in the liver, monocytes and fibroblast and has a role in clearing pathogens from an infected host.

DESCRIPTION
C8G Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 203 amino acids (21-202) and having a molecular mass of 22.6 kDa.
The C8G is fused to a 21 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
