abstract：:Upon injury of a blood vessel, activated factor VII (FVIIa) forms a high-affinity complex with its allosteric regulator, tissue factor (TF), and initiates blood clotting. Active site-inhibited factor VIIa (FVIIai) binds to TF with even higher affinity. We compared the interactions of FVIIai and FVIIa with soluble TF (...
