Gain of function mutant of complement factor B K323E mimics pathogenic C3NeF autoantibodies in convertase assays

Complement convertases are enzymatic complexes, which play a critical role in propagation and amplification of the complement cascade. Under physiological conditions, convertases decay shortly after being formed in either spontaneous or inhibitor-driven process. Prolongation of their half-life by C3...
