The complement 4 binding protein (C4bp) plays a crucial role in the inhibition of the complement cascade. It has an extraordinary seven-arm octopus-like structure with 7 tentacle-like identical chains, held together at their C-terminal end. The C-terminal domain does oligomerize in isolation, and is necessary and sufficient to oligomerize full-length C4bp. It is predicted to form a seven-helix coiled coil, and its multimerization properties make it a promising vaccine adjuvant, probably by enhancing the structural stability and binding affinity of the presented antigen. Here, we present the solid-state NMR resonance assignment of the human C4bp C-terminal oligomerization Domain, hC4pbOD, and the corresponding secondary chemical shifts
