Background

Complement 4 binding protein beta chain (C4BPB) is one of the two polypeptides that in humans compose plasma glycoprotein C4b-binding protein (C4BP). C4BPB binds anticoagulant vitamin K-dependent S. C4BPB controls the classical pathway of complement activation. It binds as a cofactor to the C3b/C4b inactivator (C3bINA), hydrolyzing the complement fragment C4b. It also accelerates the degradation of the C4bC2a complex (C3 convertase) by dissociating the complement fragment C2a.
