Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI) is a basic carboxypeptidase zymogen encoded by the human gene CPB2. TAFI constitutes a molecular link between coagulation and fibrinolysis, and between coagulation and inflammation. The 3'-untranslated region (UTR) of the human CPB2 mRNA plays a key role in regulating CPB2 mRNA abundance, but the exact mechanisms that mediate this regulation are...
