Ficolin-3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FCN3 gene. Ficolin-3 was initially identified as H-ficolin in which H is after the Hakata antigen that was previously found as an autoantigen in patients who lived in the city of Hakata. Ficolins are a group of proteins which consist of a collagen-like domain and a fibrinogen-like domain. In human serum there are two types of ficolins both of which have lectin activity.
