Gene Information

mouse ... C5a(15139)

General description

Mouse complement C5a is a 77-amino acid peptide generated during complement activation from the α-chain of complement C5. Mouse C5a shares 60% and 82% amino acid sequence identity to human and rat C5a, respectively. The 9 kDa mouse C5a protein expressed in E. coli contains a N-terminal His-Tag sequence.

Biochem/physiol Actions

C5a binds to a signaling G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) (C5aR/CD88), inducing neutrophil chemotaxis and endothelial cell activation. It also triggers an oxidative burst in macrophages and neutrophils, and induces release of histamine in basophils and mast cells.

Physical form

Sterile filtered and Lyophilized without additives.

Reconstitution

Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
Reconstitute to a concentration of 1.0 mg/mL in ice-cold water containing 2.5 mg/mL BSA. The solution should be aliquoted and immediately stored at -70°C.

Storage Class

11 - Combustible Solids

Immune cell chemotaxis to the sites of pathogen invasion is critical for fighting infection, but in life-threatening conditions such as sepsis and Covid-19, excess activation of the innate immune system is thought to cause a damaging invasion of immune cells
