Abstract excerpt
Thrombovascular diseases result from imbalanced haemostasis and comprise important health problems in the aging population worldwide. The activity of enzymes pertaining to the coagulation cascade of mammalians exhibit several control mechanisms in order to maintain a proper balance between bleeding and thrombosis. For instance, human coagulation serine proteases carrying a F225 or Y225 are allosteric modulated by...
