Monoclonal antibodies for human thrombomodulin which recognize binding sites for thrombin and protein C.

Abstract excerpt

Monoclonal antibodies for human thrombomodulin, a cofactor for thrombin-catalyzed activation of protein C, were prepared and their epitopes characterized. All six antibodies (MFTM-1-MFTM-6) bound to an elastase-digested active fragment of thrombomodulin, which contains six consecutive EGF domains. Binding of thrombomodulin to these antibodies did not depend on Ca2+ concentration. MFTM-4, MFTM-5, and MFTM-6...
