Background: Complement Factor B

Complement Factor B (also C3/C5 convertase, GBC and PBF2) is a 93-95 kDa glycoprotein member of the peptidase S1 family of enzymes.  It is expressed by hepatocytes and macrophages, and serves as a substrate for complement factor D.  Following binding of Factor B to membrane-bound C3b, Factor D acts on Factor B to generate a 33 kDa N-terminal fragment (Ba), plus a 60 kDa C-terminal fragment (Bb) that remains associated with C3b to createe a serine protease.  Mature human Factor B is 739 amino acids (aa) in length (aa 26-764).  It contains three Sushi domains (aa 35-160), one vWFA domain (aa 270-469), and a large peptidase S1 region (aa 477-757).  Cleavage between Arg259Lys260 generates the Ba chain (aa #26-259) and the Bb chain (aa 260-764).  There are two potential isoform variants.   One shows a premature truncation after Gly589, while another shows a 79 aa substitution for aa 543-764.  Over aa 26-764, human shares 85% aa identity with mouse Factor B.
