CR1 has cofactor and decay accelerating activity in both classical and alternate pathways [67].
Decay accelerating factor (DAF) (CD55) is a single-chain membrane protein that is a potent accelerator of C3 and C5 convertase decay [89].
In addition, incorporation of membrane-bound complement regulators (decay accelerating factor DAF-CD55, Membrane Cofactor DAF-CD55Membrane, Cofactors become Protein MCP-CD46sfection of the corresProtein MCP-CD46o xenogeneiCD59lls [5].
We illustrate the technique with two different fusions used to raise antibodies against the porcine and human analogues of a complement (C) regulatory protein, decay accelerating factor (DAF) (CD55).
As a model system we used rat decay accelerating factor (DAF; CD55) mRNA, which comprises three different isoforms: soluble (sDAF), transmembrane (tmDAF) and glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchored (gpiDAF) forms.
Complement restriction factors (CD46, membrane cofactor; CD55, decay accelerating factor; and CD59, protectin) are overexpressed on tumor cells, and they enable tumor cells to escape from complement-dependent and antibody-mediated killing.

Astrid was engineered with a gene human decay-accelerating factor (or hDAF)—to inhibit immunological rejection of porcine organs and tissues in humans (Rosengard et al. 1995).
These include surface and soluble proteins such as Decay-Accelerating Factor (DAF/CD55), Complement Receptor-1 (CR1/CD35), and factor H. They compete with factor B for binding to C3b and facilitate dissociation of the C3bBb complex.

Here, we evaluated if administration of the complement inhibitor recombinant human decay-accelerating factor (rhDAF) is beneficial on neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration in a rat model of moderate BINT.
Decay-accelerating-factor (DAF, CD55), a phosphatidyl-inositol anchored glycoprotein, is a member of the cell membrane bound complement regulatory proteins that inhibit autologous complement cascade activation.
