C1q

C1q
a six-subunit molecule, comprising 18 polypeptide chains, having the shape of six parallel rods flaring apart from each other at one end to terminate in a flower bunch arrangement, the globular head of each rod resembling a tulip; binding of the heads to IgM or IgG initiates the classical complement pathway, which continues by binding of two molecules each of C1r and C1s by C1q.
