E207A | mutation in proenzyme factor B. Mutation disrupts salt bridge R234-E207, with little effects on the cleavage of proenzyme factor B | Homo sapiens |
E446V | mutation in proenzyme factor B. Mutation disrupts salt bridge R234-E446 which partly stabilizes the complex C3bB(Mg2+) thereby inhibiting activation of the proenzyme | Homo sapiens |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
metabolism | when factor B first associates with C3b, it bears two intact Arg234 salt bridges. The complex rapidly dissociates unless the Arg234-Glu446 salt bridge is released whereupon conformational changes occur that activate the metal ion-dependent adhesion site and partially stabilize the complex. The remaining salt bridge is then released, exposing the scissile bond and permitting factor D cleavage of proenzyme factor B | Homo sapiens |
