Amino acid sequence data derived from tryptic peptides of the decay accelerating factor indicate that this complement regulatory protein contains a sequence with homology to the superfamily of structurally related complement proteins, including the C4 binding protein, factor H, complement receptor type 1, complement receptor type 2, Ba, C1r, and to their non-complement relatives, including beta 2-glycoprotein I, factor XIIIb, the alpha 1 chain of haptoglobin, and the interleukin 2 receptor. Identifying DAF as a member of the superfamily of structurally related complement proteins provides evidence that DAF may contain a functionally important C4b and C3b binding domain.
