Mollnes, Klos, Tschopp: "Identification of a human C5 beta-chain epitope exposed in the native complement component but concealed in the SC5b-9 complex." dans: Scandinavian journal of immunology, Vol. 28, Issue 3, pp. 307-12, (1988) (PubMed).
Monoclonal antibody 568 reacts with an epitope on C5 and on C5b. C5 is involved in the activation of the lythic pathway within the complement system which is an important factor in innate immunity. The complement pathways can be divided in the activation pathways and lytic pathway. The activation pathways lead via C3 to the cleavage of the fifth complement component C5 into C5a and C5b. C5b initiates the assembly of the membrane attack complex (MAC) that mediates cytolysis.
