The mutant 145-kD factor H protein was purified to homogeneity, from plasma of a patient with HUS, who is heterozygous for a factor H gene mutation G3587T, which introduces a stop codon at position 1172. Functional analyses show that the lack of the most C-terminal domain short consensus repeats 20 severely...
