C3c and C3d fragments of human C3 bind myeloma IgG1 and IgG3 proteins. 1982

A Hautanen, and A Sarnesto, and J Keski-Oja, and I Seppälä

Eight human myeloma proteins, two of each IgG subclass, were studied for binding to solid-phase C3c and C3d by the ELISA technique. Myeloma IgG1 kappa, IgG1 lambda, IgG3 kappa and IgG3 lambda proteins bound to C3c and C3d, while two IgG2 kappa, and two IgG4 kappa proteins failed to show significant binding affinity. The results suggest that like C1q, the stable binding sites of C3, located on the C3c and C3d parts of the molecule, have affinity for IgG subclasses 1 and 3.

D011817	Rabbits	A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D011951	Receptors, Complement	Molecules on the surface of some B-lymphocytes and macrophages, that recognize and combine with the C3b, C3d, C1q, and C4b components of complement.	Complement Receptors,Complement Receptor,Complement Receptor Type 1,Receptor, Complement
D002621	Chemistry	A basic science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter; and the reactions that occur between substances and the associated energy exchange.
D003176	Complement C3	A glycoprotein that is central in both the classical and the alternative pathway of COMPLEMENT ACTIVATION. C3 can be cleaved into COMPLEMENT C3A and COMPLEMENT C3B, spontaneously at low level or by C3 CONVERTASE at high level. The smaller fragment C3a is an ANAPHYLATOXIN and mediator of local inflammatory process. The larger fragment C3b binds with C3 convertase to form C5 convertase.

D004797	Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay	An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D001667	Binding, Competitive	The interaction of two or more substrates or ligands with the same binding site. The displacement of one by the other is used in quantitative and selective affinity measurements.	Competitive Binding
