Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have suggested that the conformation of the activation peptide of protein C is influenced by the binding of Ca(2+). To provide direct evidence for the linkage between Ca(2+) binding and the conformation of the activation peptide, we have constructed a protein C mutant in the gamma-carboxyglutamic acid-domainless form in which the P1 Arg(169) of the activation peptide is replaced with the...
