Some characteristics of the Coagulation Factor Xa purified from human serum.

1. Coagulation Factor X was purified from human serum to apparent homogeneity in disc gel electrophoresis, sodium dodecyl sulphate-polacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, immunoelectrophoresis and analytical ultracentrifugation. The method used was a modification of that described by Gladhaug & Prydz (1970). 2. The method permits the isolation of an activated form of Factor X (Xa) which has a molecular weight of about 25000. 3. Factor Xa is a glycoprotein containing about 14% carbohydrate. A preliminary report of the amino acid composition is given.

Inhibition of the thrombin-fibrinogen reaction by a macromolecular factor from rat liver.

1. The supernatant obtained by centrifugation of a rat liver homogenate at 100000g for 1h contained a heat-labile macromolecular inhibitor of the thrombin-fibrinogen reaction. 2. The inhibitor was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by repeated preparative polyacrylamide disc electrophoresis. Inhibition was observed with purified inhibitor equivalent to about 1mug of protein/ml. 3. The inhibitor had a pI of 3.50-3.75, a molecular weight (from sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis) of 72000+/-3000 and was inactivated by p-hydroxymercuribenzoate or 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid). 4. Kinetic studies revealed a non-competitive inhibition, with the inhibitor probably acting on the thrombin-fibrinogen complex.
