C8 complex

High Resolution Crystal Structure of Human Complement Component 8

Complement component 8 is a protein involved in the complement system. It is part of the membrane attack complex (MAC).

A hereditary deficiency of C8 can result in increased susceptibility to Neisseria infections, such as meningitis and gonorrhea.

Membrane attack complex. Some labels are in Polish.
