| Front | Enzyme complex that cleaves C3 to C3b and C3a on the surface of a pathogen. In the classical and lectin pathways this enzyme complex is formed from membrane-bound C4b complexed with the protease C2a. In the alternative pathway this complex is formed from membrane-bound C3b complexed with the protease Bb |
