Contribution of Amino Acid Region 659−663 of Factor Va Heavy Chain to the Activity of Factor Xa within Prothrombinase†,‡
Factor Va, the cofactor of prothrombinase, is composed of heavy and light chains associated noncovalently in the presence of divalent metal ions. The COOH-terminal region of the heavy chain contains acidic amino acid clusters that are important for cofactor activity. In this work, we have investigated the role of amino acid region 659-663, which contains five consecutive acidic amino acid resid...
متن کاملIxolaris: a factor Xa heparin-binding exosite inhibitor.
Ixolaris is a two-Kunitz TFPI (tissue factor pathway inhibitor) from the tick salivary gland. In contrast with human TFPI, Ixolaris binds tightly to the zymogen FX (Factor X) and to dansyl-Glu-Gly-Arg-chloromethyl ketone-treated FXa (DEGR-FXa; active-site-blocked FXa), indicating that exosites are involved in the FX(a)-Ixolaris interaction. Here we provide evidence that Ixolaris binds specifica...
متن کاملProthrombin protects factor Xa in the prothrombinase complex from inhibition by the heparin-antithrombin complex.
Heparin is a commonly used anticoagulant drug. It functions primarily by accelerating the antithrombin inhibition of coagulation proteinases, among which factor Xa and thrombin are believed to be the most important targets. There are conflicting results as to whether anticoagulant heparins can catalyze the antithrombin inhibition of factor Xa in the prothrombinase complex (factor Va, negatively...
متن کاملLyso-Sulfatide Binds Factor Xa and Inhibits Thrombin Generation by the Prothrombinase Complex
Blood coagulation reactions are strongly influenced by phospholipids, but little is known about the influence of sphingolipids on coagulation mechanisms. Lysosulfatide (lyso-SF) (sulfogalactosyl sphingosine) prolonged factor Xa (fXa) 1-stage plasma clotting assays, showing it had robust anticoagulant activity. In studies using purified clotting factors, lyso-SF inhibited >90% of prothrombin (II...
متن کاملExosite-mediated substrate recognition of factor IX by factor XIa. The factor XIa heavy chain is required for initial recognition of factor IX.
Studies of the mechanisms of blood coagulation zymogen activation demonstrate that exosites (sites on the activating complex distinct from the protease active site) play key roles in macromolecular substrate recognition. We investigated the importance of exosite interactions in recognition of factor IX by the protease factor XIa. Factor XIa cleavage of the tripeptide substrate S2366 was inhibit...
