Coagulation Factor XII (F12) ELISA Kit for Chicken

Function: Factor XII is a serum glycoprotein that participates in the initiation of blood coagulation, fibrinolysis, and the generation of bradykinin and angiotensin. Prekallikrein is cleaved by factor XII to form kallikrein, which then cleaves factor XII first to alpha-factor XIIa and then trypsin cleaves it to beta-factor XIIa. Alpha-factor XIIa activates factor XI to factor XIa

By similarity.

Catalytic activity: Selective cleavage of Arg-|-Ile bonds in factor VII to form factor VIIa and factor XI to form factor XIa.

Subunit structure: Interacts with HRG; the interaction, which is enhanced in the presence of zinc ions and inhibited by heparin-binding, inhibits factor XII autoactivation and contact-initiated coagulation

By similarity.

Subcellular location: Secreted.

Post-translational modification: O- and N-glycosylated

By similarity.

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the peptidase S1 family.Contains 2 EGF-like domains.Contains 1 fibronectin type-I domain.Contains 1 fibronectin type-II domain.Contains 1 kringle domain.Contains 1 peptidase S1 domain.
