Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Hemostasis is maintained through a delicate balance between procoagulant and anticoagulant mechanisms. Protein S (PS), a multidomain, vitamin K-dependent glycoprotein, contributes to this balance not only as a cofactor for activated protein C and tissue factor pathway inhibitor but also by directly inhibiting activated factor IX (FIXa). However, the structural determinants underlying FIXa inhibition...
