The fc fragment of IgMs binds C1q to activate the first step of the classical complement pathway, while inhibiting complement‐dependent cytotoxicity

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 5, Page 1358-1375, March 2026.
Multimeric IgM‐fragment crystallizable region (Fc) fragments retain the ability to bind C1q and initiate the classical complement pathway, leading to C4 activation and deposition in vitro. However, the Fc cores can also inhibit complement‐dependent cytotoxicity by competing with surface‐bound antibodies for C1q engagement.
