The role of C1, C1-inactivator and C4 in modulating immune precipitation

open access: yes, 1985
To clarify the mechanism of inhibition of immune precipitation by early components of the classical pathway of complement, aggregation of 125I-BSA-rabbit-anti-BSA antibody complexes was performed in the presence of purified C1, C1-inactivator (C1-In) and

A comparative analysis of cowpox virus (CPV WT) and a deletion mutant lacking the gene encoding the inflammation modulatory protein (CPV IMP) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 96-114).Cowpox virus has been found to encode the inflammation modulatory protein (IMP) (Miller, C.G., 1997), a homologue vaccinia virus complement control protein (VCP). VCP belongs to regulation of complement

Serum amyloid P aids complement-mediated immunity to Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The physiological functions of the acute phase protein serum amyloid P (SAP) component are not well defined, although they are likely to be important, as no natural state of SAP deficiency has been reported.

Pneumococcal histidine triad proteins are regulated by the Zn(2+)-dependent repressor AdcR and inhibit complement deposition through the recruitment of complement factor H

open access: yes, 2009
The pneumococcal histidine triad (Pht) proteins are a recently recognized family of surface proteins, comprising 4 members: PhtA, PhtB, PhtD, and PhtE. They are being promoted for inclusion in a multicomponent pneumococcal protein vaccine currently under
