چکیده

第VIII因子(FVIII)はトロンビンによってArg372,Arg740,Arg1689を開裂することにより活性化される.野上らは,FVIII A2ドメインにトロンビンによるArg372開裂を制御する部位が存在することを示した.本研究では,Arg372開裂とFVIII A1ドメイン337~372残基の相互作用に着目した.アラニン置換したFVIII変異体(Y346AおよびD347A/D348A/D349A)は,野生型と比較してトロンビンによる活性化ピーク値が約50%,開裂速度が約10~20%に抑制されたことから,FVIII A1ドメイン346~349残基がArg372による活性化を制御するトロンビン結合部位であることを示した.また,FVIII A1ドメイン337~346残基をヒルゲン配列に置換したFVIII変異体では,トロンビンによるFVIII活性化のピーク値とArg372での開裂速度が,それぞれ野生型の約1.5倍と約2.5倍と高くなった.この様に,私達はトロンビンと結合親和性が高いことで知られている蛋白であるヒルゲン配列をFVIII A1ドメインに組み込むというユニークな発想から高機能型FVIIIの作成に成功した.本稿ではこの詳細に考察を交えて概説する.

Proteolysis at Arg740 facilitates subsequent bond cleavages during thrombin-catalyzed activation of factor VIII.

Thrombin activates factor VIII by proteolysis at three P1 residues: Arg372, Arg740, and Arg1689. Cleavage at Arg372 and Arg1689 are essential for procofactor activation; however cleavage at Arg740 has not been rigorously studied. To evaluate the role for cleavage at Arg740, we prepared and stably expressed two recombinant B-domainless factor VIII mutants, R740H and R740Q to slow and eliminate, ...

Cleavage at Arg-1689 influences heavy chain cleavages during thrombin-catalyzed activation of factor VIII.

The procofactor, factor VIII, is activated by thrombin or factor Xa-catalyzed cleavage at three P1 residues: Arg-372, Arg-740, and Arg-1689. The catalytic efficiency for thrombin cleavage at Arg-740 is greater than at either Arg-1689 or Arg-372 and influences reaction rates at these sites. Because cleavage at Arg-372 appears rate-limiting and dependent upon initial cleavage at Arg-740, we inves...

von Willebrand factor is a cofactor for thrombin-catalyzed cleavage of the factor VIII light chain.

The proteolytic activation of highly purified, heterodimeric porcine factor VIII and factor VIII-von Willebrand factor complex by thrombin was compared at I 0.17, pH 7.0, 22 degrees C. During the activation of factor VIII, heavy-chain cleavage is necessary to activate the procoagulant function, whereas light-chain cleavage is required to dissociate factor VIII from von Willebrand factor. The ki...

Thrombin-catalyzed activation of factor VIII with His substituted for Arg372 at the P1 site.

Thrombin-catalyzed proteolysis at Arg372 of factor VIII is essential for procofactor activation. However, hemophilia A patients with the missense mutation Arg372 to His possess a mild to moderate phenotype yet show no detectable cleavage at this bond. To evaluate this discrepancy, we prepared and stably expressed a recombinant, B-domainless factor VIII mutant (R372H) that possessed approximatel...
