Abstract excerpt
Antithrombin (AT) is a serine protease inhibitor, its activity is highly accelerated by heparin. Mutations at the heparin-binding region lead to functional defect, type II heparin-binding site (IIHBS) AT deficiency. The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the molecular background of AT Budapest 3 (p.Leu131Phe, ATBp3), AT Basel (p.Pro73Leu), and AT Padua (p.Arg79His) mutations. Advanced in silico...
