Protein name C4b-binding protein alpha chain (C4bp) (Proline-rich protein) (PRP)
Protein function Controls the classical pathway of complement activation. It binds as a cofactor to C3b/C4b inactivator (C3bINA), which then hydrolyzes the complement fragment C4b. It also accelerates the degradation of the C4bC2a complex (C3 convertase) by diss
