Mannose-Binding Protein-Associated Serine Proteases

Known as: MBP Associated Serine Protease, Mannose-Binding Protein-Associated Serine Protease, Serine Protease, MBP-Associated 
Serum serine proteases which participate in COMPLEMENT ACTIVATION. They are activated when complexed with the MANNOSE-BINDING LECTIN, therefore also…
