C5 is the fifth component of complement, which plays an important role in inflammatory and cell killing processes.
This protein is comprised of alpha and beta polypeptide chains that are linked by a disulfide bridge.
An activation peptide, C5a, which is an anaphylatoxin that possesses potent spasmogenic and chemotactic activity, is derived from the alpha polypeptide via cleavage with a convertase.
The C5b macromolecular cleavage product can form a complex with the C6 complement component, and this complex is the basis for formation of the membrane attack complex, which includes additional complement components.
