Functional and Expressional Analyses Reveal the Distinct Role of Complement Factor I in Regulating Complement System Activation during GCRV Infection in <i>Ctenopharyngodon idella</i>

Complement factor I (CFI), a complement inhibitor, is well known for regulating the complement system activation by degrading complement component 3b (C3b) in animal serum, thus becoming involved in innate defense. Nevertheless, the functional mechanisms of CFI in the complement system and in host-p...
