Abstract excerpt
The fifth domain (DV) of beta2-glycoprotein I (beta2GPI) is important for binding a number of ligands including phospholipids and factor XI (FXI). Beta2GPI is proteolytically cleaved in DV by plasmin but not by thrombin, VIIa, tissue plasminogen activator, or uPA. Following proteolytic cleavage of DV by plasmin, beta2GPI retains binding to FXI but not to phospholipids. Native beta2GPI, but not cleaved beta2GPI,...
