Mild hemophilia A caused by increased rate of factor VIII A2 subunit dissociation: evidence for nonproteolytic inactivation of factor VIIIa in vivo.
Approximately 5% of hemophilia A patients have normal amounts of a dysfunctional factor VIII (FVIII) protein and are termed cross-reacting material (CRM)-positive. FVIII is a heterodimer (domain structure A1-A2-B/A3-C1-C2) that requires thrombin cleavage to elicit procoagulant activity. Thrombin-activated FVIII is a heterotrimer with the A2 subunit (amino acid residues 373 to 740) in a weak ion...
متن کاملpH-dependent denaturation of thrombin-activated porcine factor VIII.
Thrombin-activated porcine factor VIII (fVIIIaIIa) is a stable, active, 160-kDa heterotrimer at concentrations exceeding 2 x 10(-7) M in 0.7 M NaCl, 0.01 M histidine Cl, 5 mM CaCl2, pH 6.0, at 4 degrees C or 20 degrees C. Two of the subunits, fVIIIA1 and fVIIIA2, are derived from the heavy chain of the plasma-derived, heterodimeric fVIII precursor. The third subunit, fVIIIA3-C1-C2, is derived f...
متن کاملThe subunit structure of normal and hemophilic factor VIII.
Human factor VIII from normals and hemophiliacs was partially purified by ethanol and polyethylene glycol precipitations. Final purification was achieved by gel filtration on 2 or 4% agarose or ion exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose. Comparable amounts of highly purified protein were obtained from normal and hemophilic plasma following the agarose chromatography step. Highly...
متن کاملA2 domain of human recombinant-derived factor VIII is required for procoagulant activity but not for thrombin cleavage.
Thrombin treatment of the coagulation factor VIII results in a rapid activation of procoagulant activity with a subsequent first order decay. The structural requirements for thrombin-activated factor VIII were characterized using recombinant-derived human factor VIII and site-directed DNA-mediated mutagenesis. Thrombin-activated human recombinant-derived factor VIII was isolated in an active fo...
متن کاملFactor VIII structure and function.
Factor VIII, a non-covalent heterodimer comprised of a heavy chain (A1-A2-B domains) and light chain (A3-C1-C2 domains), circulates as an inactive procofactor in complex with von Willebrand factor. Metal ions are critical to the integrity of factor VIII, with Cu and Ca ions stabilizing the heterodimer and generating the active conformation, respectively. Activation of factor VIII catalyzed by t...
