C3b associates with complement factor B, inducing conformational change which enables complement factor D to cleave the N-terminal of complement factor B, the Ba subunit, leaving the 63 kDa Bb subunit associated with C3b and forming C3 convertase. Subunit Bb is involved in the proliferation of preactivated B lymphocytes. Conversely, Ba inhibits lymphocyte proliferation.Synonyms: BF, BFD, C3/C5 convertase, CFB, Glycine-rich beta glycoprotein, PBF2, Properdin factor B
