Conformational Complexity of Complement Component C3
, 2007 The structures of native C3 and its major fragment C3c have provided a wealth of structural insights into the central protein of the complement system. The proteolytic activation steps, generating the important fragments C3b and iC3b, are thought to induce significant conformational changes in the molecule, yielding protein molecules with distinct ...

Defining the Complement Biomarker Profile of C3 Glomerulopathy [PDF]
Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2014 C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) applies to a group of renal diseases defined by a specific renal biopsy finding: a dominant pattern of C3 fragment deposition on immunofluorescence. The primary pathogenic mechanism involves abnormal control of the alternative complement pathway, although a full description of the disease spectrum remains to be determined.

Determination of the chiral coupling constants c3 and c4 in new pp and np partial-wave analyses [PDF]
Phys.Rev. C67 (2003) 044001, 2003 As a first result of two new partial-wave analyses, one of the pp and another one of the np scattering data below 500 MeV, we report a study of the long-range chiral two-pion exchange interaction which contains the chiral coupling constants c1, c3, and c4.
