Abstract excerpt
Factor (F)VIII consists of a heavy chain [A1(a1)A2(a2)B domains] and a light chain [(a3)A3C1C2 domains]. Several reports have shown significant changes in FVIII stability and/or activity following selected mutations at the A1-A2, A1-A3, A2-A3, and A1-C2 domain interfaces. In this study, the remaining inter-FVIII subunit interfaces (A3-C1 and C1-C2) were examined for their contributions to the stability and...
