Description

General description

Factor Va is the activated form of factor V and the cofactor of Xa. It is a component of the prothrombinase complex.

Factor V, a glycoprotein is usually seen in the alpha granules of platelets and in plasma.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Factor V is a key component in blood coagulation systems, where deficiencies can inhibit thrombin generation and affect hemostasis. It has been used in studies of coagulopathic bleeding which occurs following injury and is a leading cause of hospital deaths.

Factor Va serves as a receptor and positive effector of factor Xa. Hence it can efficiently help in the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin.

Physical form

Aqueous solution containing 50% (v/v) glycerol and 5mM CaCl₂

Other Notes

One unit is equivalent to the Factor V activity in 1.0 mL of normal human plasma at pH 7.4 at 37 °C.
