| Function | Glycoprotein that plays an essential role in maintaining a well-balanced immune response by modulating complement activation. Acts as a soluble inhibitor of complement, where its binding to self markers such as glycan structures prevents complement activation and amplification on cell surfaces. Accelerates the decay of the complement alternative pathway (AP) C3 convertase C3bBb, thus preventing local formation of more C3b, the central player of the complement amplification loop. As a cofactor of the serine protease factor I, CFH also regulates proteolytic degradation of already-deposited C3b. In addition, mediates several cellular responses through interaction with specific receptors. For example, interacts with CR3/ITGAM receptor and thereby mediates the adhesion of human neutrophils to different pathogens. In turn, these pathogens are phagocytosed and destroyed. (Microbial infection) In the mosquito midgut, binds to the surface of parasite P.falciparum gametocytes and protects the parasite from alternative complement pathway-mediated elimination. |

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Human CFH (Complement Factor H) Antibody Pair (STJAP00166)
This antibody pair detects human Complement Factor H (CFH, UniProt P08603) and is validated for reactivity against human samples only.
The capture antibody is supplied unconjugated and the detection antibody is biotin-conjugated; both are provided at 0.5 mg/mL. Both antibodies are polyclonal, raised in goat, and formulated in PBS with 0.04% Proclin 300 and 50% glycerol at pH 7.4.
This pair has been validated for use in ELISA. No other assay formats are listed in the product documentation.
Both antibodies were purified by antigen affinity purification. Each was raised against recombinant human CFH protein as the immunogen.
Both components should be stored at -20°C for long-term storage. Freeze-thaw cycles should be avoided to maintain antibody integrity.
