Activation of factor VIII by factor IXa.
Thrombin causes an increase in factor VIII coagulant (VIII:C) activity, which is followed by a decay of VIII:C activity to below baseline levels. It has been suggested that a similar interaction of trace amounts of thrombin and factor VIII is a necessary prerequisite before factor VIII can participate in the coagulation cascade. In the current study, factor IXa, a serine protease with structura...
متن کاملFactor IXa Inhibitors as Novel Anticoagulants R1 Howard Factor IXa Inhibitors
Currently available anticoagulants are limited by modest therapeutic benefits, narrow clinical applications, increased bleeding risk, and drug-induced thrombophilia. Because factor IX plays a pivotal role in thrombin generation, it may represent a promising target for drug development. Several methods of attenuating factor IX activity, including monoclonal antibodies, synthetic active site-bloc...
متن کاملHeparin-stimulated inhibition of factor IXa generation and factor IXa neutralization in plasma.
Generation and inhibition of activated factor IXa was studied in factor XIa-activated plasma containing 4 mmol/L free calcium ions and 20 mumol/L phospholipid (25 mol% phosphatidylserine/75 mol% phosphatidylcholine). Interference of other (activated) clotting factors with the factor IXa activity measurements could be avoided by using a highly specific and sensitive bioassay. Factor IXa generati...
متن کاملLocalization of the heparin binding exosite of factor IXa.
Factor IXa (FIXa) is known to have a binding site for heparin that has not been mapped by a mutagenesis study. By homology modeling based on structural data, we identified eight basic residues in the catalytic domain of FIXa that can potentially bind to heparin. These residues, Lys(98), Lys(126), Arg(165), Arg(170), Lys(173), Lys(230), Arg(233), and Lys(239) (chymotrypsin numbering) were substi...
متن کاملCoagulation factor XII protease domain crystal structure
BACKGROUND Coagulation factor XII is a serine protease that is important for kinin generation and blood coagulation, cleaving the substrates plasma kallikrein and FXI. OBJECTIVE To investigate FXII zymogen activation and substrate recognition by determining the crystal structure of the FXII protease domain. METHODS AND RESULTS A series of recombinant FXII protease constructs were characteri...
