[Activation of plasma Factor XIII by acetylated thrombin]. 1977

A S Orlova, and I P Baskova

It has been demonstrated that acetylated thrombin (thrombin-esterase), having practically no coagulating activity but possessing high esterase activity, is capable to activate factor XIII. This ability, however, is 2 times lower as compared to that of native thrombin.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D004789 Enzyme Activation Conversion of an inactive form of an enzyme to one possessing metabolic activity. It includes 1, activation by ions (activators); 2, activation by cofactors (coenzymes); and 3, conversion of an enzyme precursor (proenzyme or zymogen) to an active enzyme. Activation, Enzyme,Activations, Enzyme,Enzyme Activations
D005176 Factor XIII A fibrin-stabilizing plasma enzyme (TRANSGLUTAMINASES) that is activated by THROMBIN and CALCIUM to form FACTOR XIIIA. It is important for stabilizing the formation of the fibrin polymer (clot) which culminates the coagulation cascade.

D000107 Acetylation Formation of an acetyl derivative. (Stedman, 25th ed) Acetylations
D013329 Structure-Activity Relationship The relationship between the chemical structure of a compound and its biological or pharmacological activity. Compounds are often classed together because they have structural characteristics in common including shape, size, stereochemical arrangement, and distribution of functional groups.
