Structure of the poly-C9 component of the complement membrane attack complex
The membrane attack complex is a heteromeric assembly of complement proteins where multiple copies of C9 are recruited by the C5b678 complex to form lytic pores in pathogen membranes. Here the authors present the structure of a soluble pore-like form of the C9 component that reveals details of the o...

| Sumario: | The membrane attack complex is a heteromeric assembly of complement proteins where multiple copies of C9 are recruited by the C5b678 complex to form lytic pores in pathogen membranes. Here the authors present the structure of a soluble pore-like form of the C9 component that reveals details of the oligomerization interfaces. |
