Quantification of the zymogenicity and the substrate-induced activity enhancement of complement factor D
Complement factor D (FD) is a serine protease present predominantly in the active form in circulation. It is synthesized as a zymogen (pro-FD), but it is continuously converted to FD by circulating active MASP-3. FD is a unique, self-inhibited protease. It has an extremely low activity toward free f...
