Immunoglobulin M (IgM) is a class of mammalian antibody that is critical for the early stages of adaptive immunity, and is the most potent Ig-activator of the classical complement cascade. While the relationship between IgM and complement has been appreciated for decades, the structural transitions within IgM upon antigen binding that promote the activation of complement component C1 remain unresolved. Here we examine in vitro complement activation, C1 binding kinetics, and conformational change ...[more]
