Abstract excerpt
Membrane binding by prothrombin, mediated by its N-terminal fragment 1 (F1) domain, plays an essential role in its proteolytic activation by prothrombinase. Thrombin is produced in two cleavage reactions. One at Arg(320) yields the proteinase meizothrombin that retains membrane binding properties...
