About This Section

EntrezGene summary for C3:
Complement component C3 plays a central role in the activation of complement system. Its activation
is required for both classical and alternative complement activation pathways. People with C3
deficiency are susceptible to bacterial infection. [provided by RefSeq]

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: CO3_HUMAN, P01024
Function: Derived from proteolytic degradation of complement C3, C3a anaphylatoxin is a mediator of
local inflammatory process. It induces the contraction of smooth muscle, increases vascular
permeability and causes histamine release from mast cells and basophilic leukocytes

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: CO3_HUMAN, P01024 (See protein sequence)
Recommended Name: Complement C3 precursor  
Size: 1663 amino acids; 187148 Da
Subunit: C3 precursor is first processed by the removal of 4 Arg residues, forming two chains, beta
and alpha, linked by a disulfide bond. C3 convertase activates C3 by cleaving the alpha chain,
releasing C3a anaphylatoxin and generating C3b (beta chain + alpha' chain). During pregnancy, C3dg
exists as a complex (probably a 2:2:2 heterohexamer) with AGT and the proform of PRG2. Interacts
with CR2 and VSIG4

Post-translational modifications:

  • C3b is rapidly split in two positions by factor I and a cofactor to form iC3b (inactivated C3b) and
    C3f which is released. Then iC3b is slowly cleaved (possibly by factor I) to form C3c (beta chain
    + alpha' chain fragment 1 + alpha' chain fragment 2), C3dg and C3f. Other proteases produce other
    fragments such as C3d or C3g1

    Polymorphism: There are two alleles: C3S (C3 slow), the most common allele in all races and C3F (C3
    fast), relatively frequent in Caucasoids, less common in Black Americans, extremely rare in
    Orientals

    About This Section

    OMIM: 120700

  • Defects in C3 are the cause of C3 deficiency [MIM:120700]. It can result in susceptibility
    to pyogenic infection
  • Genetic variation in C3 is associated with susceptibility to age-related macular
    degeneration type 9 (ARMD9) [MIM:611378]. ARMD is a multifactorial eye disease and the most common
    cause of irreversible vision loss in the developed world. In most patients, the disease is
    manifest as ophthalmoscopically visible yellowish accumulations of protein and lipid that lie
    beneath the retinal pigment epithelium and within an elastin-containing structure known as Bruch
    membrane
