Abstract

The activated form of the third complement protein, C3b, forms a stable complex with components of plasma membranes and particulate entities such as zymosan. The complex resists the action of detergents and protein denaturants as well as extremes of temperature, salt concentration, and pH. It can, however, be broken by exposure to hydroxylamine or by ammonolysis followed by incubation with sodium dodecyl sulfate. Thus, the complex appears to result from a hydrophobic interaction as well as a bond susceptible to nucleophilic attack.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
