Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine patient with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, preparation of naturally occuring antibodies to enzyme exhibits nephritic factor activity 60fold stronger than total IgG. Antibodies promote enzyme generation, when added to the convertase precursor or during convertase assembly Homo sapiens

General Stability

General Stability Organism
marked stabilization of enzyme by naturally occuring IgG directed against the enzyme. Antibody prevents convertase decay in the presence of factor H. In addition, the antibody stabilizes enzyme precursors and promotes enzyme assembly Homo sapiens
