Molecular insights into the surface-specific arrangement of complement C5 convertase enzymes
BACKGROUND: Complement is a large protein network in plasma that is crucial for human immune defenses and a major cause of aberrant inflammatory reactions. The C5 convertase is a multi-molecular protease complex that catalyses the cleavage of native C5 into its biologically important products. So fa...
