== Disease ==
[[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CO3_HUMAN CO3_HUMAN]] Defects in C3 are the cause of complement component 3 deficiency (C3D) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/613779 613779]]. A rare defect of the complement classical pathway. Patients develop recurrent, severe, pyogenic infections because of ineffective opsonization of pathogens. Some patients may also develop autoimmune disorders, such as arthralgia and vasculitic rashes, lupus-like syndrome and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.<ref>PMID:19913840</ref> <ref>PMID:9596584</ref> <ref>PMID:11387479</ref> <ref>PMID:15713468</ref> <ref>PMID:7961791</ref> [:]  Genetic variation in C3 is associated with susceptibility to age-related macular degeneration type 9 (ARMD9) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/611378 611378]]. ARMD is a multifactorial eye disease and the most common cause of irreversible vision loss in the developed world. In most patients, the disease is manifest as ophthalmoscopically visible yellowish accumulations of protein and lipid that lie beneath the retinal pigment epithelium and within an elastin-containing structure known as Bruch membrane.<ref>PMID:19913840</ref> <ref>PMID:17634448</ref>   Defects in C3 are a cause of susceptibility to hemolytic uremic syndrome atypical type 5 (AHUS5) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/612925 612925]]. An atypical form of hemolytic uremic syndrome. It is a complex genetic disease characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, renal failure and absence of episodes of enterocolitis and diarrhea. In contrast to typical hemolytic uremic syndrome, atypical forms have a poorer prognosis, with higher death rates and frequent progression to end-stage renal disease. Note=Susceptibility to the development of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome can be conferred by mutations in various components of or regulatory factors in the complement cascade system. Other genes may play a role in modifying the phenotype.<ref>PMID:19913840</ref> <ref>PMID:18796626</ref> <ref>PMID:20513133</ref>   Note=Increased levels of C3 and its cleavage product ASP, are associated with obesity, diabetes and coronary heart disease. Short-term endurance training reduces baseline ASP levels and subsequently fat storage.<ref>PMID:19913840</ref>  
== Function ==
[[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CO3_HUMAN CO3_HUMAN]] C3 plays a central role in the activation of the complement system. Its processing by C3 convertase is the central reaction in both classical and alternative complement pathways. After activation C3b can bind covalently, via its reactive thioester, to cell surface carbohydrates or immune aggregates.<ref>PMID:8376604</ref> <ref>PMID:2909530</ref> <ref>PMID:9059512</ref> <ref>PMID:9555951</ref> <ref>PMID:10432298</ref> <ref>PMID:15833747</ref> <ref>PMID:16333141</ref> <ref>PMID:19615750</ref>   Derived from proteolytic degradation of complement C3, C3a anaphylatoxin is a mediator of local inflammatory process. It induces the contraction of smooth muscle, increases vascular permeability and causes histamine release from mast cells and basophilic leukocytes.<ref>PMID:8376604</ref> <ref>PMID:2909530</ref> <ref>PMID:9059512</ref> <ref>PMID:9555951</ref> <ref>PMID:10432298</ref> <ref>PMID:15833747</ref> <ref>PMID:16333141</ref> <ref>PMID:19615750</ref>   Acylation stimulating protein (ASP): adipogenic hormone that stimulates triglyceride (TG) synthesis and glucose transport in adipocytes, regulating fat storage and playing a role in postprandial TG clearance. Appears to stimulate TG synthesis via activation of the PLC, MAPK and AKT signaling pathways. Ligand for GPR77. Promotes the phosphorylation, ARRB2-mediated internalization and recycling of GPR77.<ref>PMID:8376604</ref> <ref>PMID:2909530</ref> <ref>PMID:9059512</ref> <ref>PMID:9555951</ref> <ref>PMID:10432298</ref> <ref>PMID:15833747</ref> <ref>PMID:16333141</ref> <ref>PMID:19615750</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Complement factor H (FH) attenuates C3b molecules tethered by their thioester domains to self surfaces and thereby protects host tissues. Factor H is a cofactor for initial C3b proteolysis that ultimately yields a surface-attached fragment (C3d) corresponding to the thioester domain. We used NMR and X-ray crystallography to study the C3d-FH19-20 complex in atomic detail and identify glycosaminoglycan-binding residues in factor H module 20 of the C3d-FH19-20 complex. Mutagenesis justified the merging of the C3d-FH19-20 structure with an existing C3b-FH1-4 crystal structure. We concatenated the merged structure with the available FH6-8 crystal structure and new SAXS-derived FH1-4, FH8-15 and FH15-19 envelopes. The combined data are consistent with a bent-back factor H molecule that binds through its termini to two sites on one C3b molecule and simultaneously to adjacent polyanionic host-surface markers.
