C1q Protein (mouse) is a complement protein and a recognition molecule of the classical pathway, performing diverse complement and non-complement functions. It binds various ligands derived from self, non-self, and altered self, modulating the functions of immune and non-immune cells, and can be used for the research of multiple diseases.
