Abstract excerpt
The interaction of thrombin (IIa) with thrombomodulin (TM) is essential for the efficient activation of protein C (PC). Interactions between PC and extended surfaces, likely contributed by TM within the IIa.TM complex, have been proposed to play a key role in PC activation. Initial velocities of PC activation at different concentrations of PC and TM could be accounted for by a model that did not require...
