General description

Coagulation factor II (F2) is the precursor of thrombin belonging to serine protease family. It is mainly involved in the coagulation cascade i.e. hemostasis and thrombosis.

Immunogen

Immunogen Sequence: GI # 4503635, sequence 1-622
Prothrombin human native protein.

Application

Anti-Prothrombin antibody produced in chicken is suitable for western blotting analysis at a dilution of 1:500, for tissue or cell staining at a dilution of 1:200.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Thrombin is a serine protease encoded by the F2 gene in humans. Prothrombin (coagulation factor II) is proteolytically cleaved to form thrombin in the coagulation cascade and ultimately results in the reduction of blood loss. It is generated at the sites of vascular injury and acts as a potent activator of platelets. It activates platelets as well as the blood coagulation factors V, VIII and XIII, which plays an essential role in blood clot mechanism. Moreover, proteolysis of fibrinogen by thrombin generates fibrin monomers which undergoes polymerization and form the basis of this clot. The activity of thrombin is inhibited by hirudin by the formation of a tight, non-covalent complex. It has been shown that a region adjacent to the proteolytic pocket of thrombin confers high-affinity binding capacity which helps in generation of mitogenic signals. Its mutation is implicated as a risk factor for venous thrombosis, its role in arterial ischemic stroke is not known, especially among young adults.

Although the prothrombin G20210A mutation has been implicated as a risk factor for venous thrombosis, its role in arterial ischemic stroke is unclear, particularly among young adults. To address this issue, we examined the association between prothrombin G20210A and ischemic

Initiation of cell proliferation by thrombin requires signals generated by thrombin interaction with specific high-affinity receptors and thrombin enzymic activity. Using synthetic peptides representing various domains of thrombin, we have identified a region adjacent to the proteolytic pocket of thrombin
