Komplement-Komponente C2

Das C2-gen kodiert eine serum Glycoprotein welches eine bedeutung bei der Aktivierung der klassischen Complementkaskade besitzt. Es wird durch aktiviertes C1 in C2a und C2b gespalten. Während C2a als Anaphylatoxin wirkt setzt C2b zusammen mit C4b durch Aktivierung von C3 und C5 die Complementkaskade fort. Ein C2-Mangel ist of recht gut kompensiert, aber einige Mutationen scheinen mit Autoimmunerkrankungen und der altersabhängigen Maculadegeneration vergesellschaftet zu sein.
