Characterization and expression analysis of the complement component 8β from pufferfish (Takifugu rubripes)

Complement 8β (C8β) is a critical component in the complement system, which mediates bacterial lysis and acts as an essential molecule for membrane attack complex (MAC) formation. This study cloned a partial C8β gene by transcriptome sequencing and RACE approaches from pufferfish Takifugu rubripes (...
