Complement, a complex system of serum proteins, contributes to host defense through multiple mechanisms. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Sorbara et al. (2018) discovered that cytosolic pathogens opsonized by complement are restricted by autophagy. This unexpected role for complement is important for cell-autonomous immunity in the intestinal mucosa.
