Description
Thrombin is a "trypsin-like" serine protease that is produced by the enzymatic cleavage of two sites on prothrombin by activated Factor X (Xa). Thrombin in turn acts as a serine protease that converts soluble fibrinogen into insoluble strands of fibrin. Thrombin is also active in the catalysis of many other coagulation-related reactions. Beyond its key role in the dynamic process of thrombus formation, thrombin has a pronounced pro-inflammatory character, which may influence the onset and progression of atherosclerosis.
Additional description
Aplha, transcription related growth factors and stimulating factors or repressing nuclear factors are complex subunits of proteins involved in cell differentiation. Complex subunit associated factors are involved in hybridoma growth, Eosinohils, eritroid proliferation and derived from promotor binding stimulating subunits on the DNA binding complex. NFKB 105 subunit for example is a polypetide gene enhancer of genes in B cells.Human proteins from Homo sapiens human species. Homo is the human genus, which also includes Neanderthals and many other extinct species of hominids. Specific human epitopes are selected for human ELISA kits.
