General Notes
Mouse anti Human C7 antibody, clone 030-113.7.5.4 recognises complement component 7 (C7), a 110 kDa glycoprotein present in the blood serum. The factor I domain of C7 binds the C terminus of the C5 alpha-chain, acting as a membrane anchor. This enables the assembly of the complement membrane attack complex (MAC) and consequent complement lytic activity. C7 deficiency is associated with increased susceptibility to recurrent infections, in particular by Neisseria meningitides. Mouse anti Human C7 antibody, clone 030-113.7.5.4 does not recognie membrane bound complement membrane attack complex.Mouse anti Human C7 antibody, clone 030-113.7.5.4 inhibits lysis of sensitised sheep erythrocytes.Removal of Sodium Azide is recommended prior to use in functional assays.
