Structural basis for engagement by complement factor H of C3b on a self surface

Complement factor H (FH) attenuates C3b molecules tethered via their thioester domains to self-surfaces and thereby protects host tissues. FH is a cofactor for initial C3b proteolysis that ultimately yields a surface-attached fragment (C3d), corresponding to the thioester domain. We used NMR and X-r...
