C3 is central to the activation of all three pathways of complement activation (Law, S.K.A. and Reid, KProtein Purity≥85% by SDS PAGEExtinction CoeffA280 nm = 10.16 at 1.0 mg/ml for pure C3Molecular Weight187,000 Da (2 chains)General DescriptionRat C3 is purified from pooled normal rat serum. C3 is central to the activation of all three pathways of complement activation (Law, S.K.A. and Reid, K.B.M. (1995)). Initiation of each pathway generates proteolytic enzyme complexes (C3 convertases) which are bound to the target surface. These enzymes cleave a peptide bond in C3 releasing the anaphylatoxin C3a and activating C3b. For a brief time (~60 µs) this nascent C3b is capable of reacting with and covalently coupling to hydroxyl groups on the target surface. Carbohydrates are the favored target, but protein hydroxyls and amino groups also react. This process of tagging the target surface with C3b is called opsonization. The reactive site in nascent C3b is a thioester (Tack B.J., et al. (1980); Pangburn M.K. and MüllerEberhard H.J. (1980)) and C3b is linked to the target through a covalent ester bond (an amide bond is formed if C3b is attached to amino groups). Most of the C3 activated during complement activation never attaches to the surface because its thioester reacts with water forming fluid phase C3b which is rapidly inactivated by factors H and I forming iC3b. Surface-bound C3b is necessary in all three pathways for efficient activation of C5 and formation of C5b-9 complexes that lyse the target cell membrane. Surface-bound C3b and its breakdown products iC3b and C3d are recognized by numerous receptors on lymphoid and phagocytic cells which use the C3b ligand to stimulate antigen presentation to cells of the adaptive immune system. The end result is an expansion of target-specific B-cell and T-cell populations.Physical Characteristics & StructureThe calculated molecular weight of rat C3 based on its amino acid sequence is 184,111daltons (without the signal peptide) and is similar to that of human C3 (185,000 daltons).The molecular weight of rat C3 as determined by SDS/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis has been reported by Daha, M.R. et al., (1979) to be 187,000 daltons composed of two disulfide linked chains, alpha chain (123,000 daltons) and beta chain (76,000 daltons). The extinction coefficient of rat C3 (E1%/280nm = 10.16) is calculated based on its amino acid sequence using ProtParam and assumes all pairs of Cys residues form cystines (i.e. a pair of cysteine molecules are joined by a disulfide bond). The theoretical pI of rat C3 is 6.12. The normal plasma concentration of C3 inWistar rats has been reported to be 0.581mg/ml (Daha, M.R. et al., (1979)).FunctionThe biological functions of C3 are described above in the General Description section.GeneticsRat C3 chromosome location 9. The NCBI Gene ID number for rat C3 is 24232 and UniProt accession number is P01026.Precautions/Toxicity/HazardsThis protein is purified from animal plasma/serum and therefore precautions appropriate for handling any animal blood-derived product must be used.ReferencesLaw, S.K.A. and Reid, K.B.M.

Do not store together with: Oxidizing agent. 4. Contaminated or leaked out substrate solution from damaged bottles should not be used anymore and has to be destroyed.5. Use isolated containers with some cool bags for transport.6. Spontaneous decay will increase the background. If stored at room temperature, the velocity of the decay will increase. Thus, both storage and transport at room temperature should be avoided. Nevertheless, the activity of the solution is not affected by storage at room temperature. The solution still works beyond the expiry date, but some applications, especially those including visual evaluation, may be hampered by increased background. 3、Effective Components and Principle of FunctionIn different buffer solutions (pH = 9.5), with supplementation if required, the effective componentpara nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP) is dissolved. Alkaline Phosphatase transfers the phosphate residue to an acceptor. Under alkaline conditions a yellow colour occurs, resulting from the formed nitrophenol. 4、Biosafety informationThis mixture is not classified as hazardous in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008； 5、Advantage1. Signal yield comparable to competitor ready-to-use solutions2. Broad measurement range3. Very low background signals4. Very low blank drift during long-term storage (<0.15 AU within 24 months)5. High colour stability after reaction stop with this product and other commonly used stopping solutions 6、Instruction for usageFor bottling consider the following instructions:• Work in a dust free and darkened room.• Keep the solution as cool as possible.• Avoid contact of the solutions with any metal parts• Clean all instruments and vessels very extensively.• Wear powder-free gloves during bottling.• Close the bottles immediately to minimize the influence of light and dust.• Use clean bottles that are impermeable to light made from HDPE or PP. 7、 General Instructions for the Use in Blotting Systems Only qualified laboratory staff, who are familiar with the basics of immunological methods, are allowed to use these solutions.The substrate solutions can be used in qualitative and quantitative ELISA procedures.When using 96-well microtiter plates, adding 100 µL of substrate per well after incubation and washing is recommended. After substrate incubation the reaction can be stopped and the photometric measurement can be carried out. Using higher incubation temperatures (37° C) may shorten the incubation time. The reaction can be stopped by using the special developed solution stop. The use of other commercially available stop solutions cannot safely exclude a further increase of the signal. Addition of a stopping solution does not change the general shape of the spectrum. The unstopped and the stopped solution should be measured at 405 nm and the background correction: should be measured at 620 nm... Read More |
