Crystal structure and functional interpretation of the erythrocyte spectrin tetramerization domain complex.

abstract：:Protein S is a vitamin K-dependent nonenzymatic anticoagulant protein that acts as a cofactor to activated protein C. Recently it was shown that protein S inhibits the prothrombinase reaction independent of activated protein C. In this study, we show that protein S can also inhibit the intrinsic factor X activation vi...
