Function
Factor Xa is a vitamin K-dependent glycoprotein that converts prothrombin to thrombin in the presence of factor Va, calcium and phospholipid during blood clotting. Factor Xa activates pro-inflammatory signaling pathways in a protease-activated receptor (PAR)-dependent manner. Up-regulates expression of protease-activated receptors (PARs) F2R, F2RL1 and F2RL2 in dermal microvascular endothelial cells.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Secreted
Tissue Specificity: Plasma; synthesized in the liver
Disease Association: Factor X deficiency (FA10D) : A hemorrhagic disease with variable presentation. Affected individuals can manifest prolonged nasal and mucosal hemorrhage, menorrhagia, hematuria, and occasionally hemarthrosis. Some patients do not have clinical bleeding diathesis. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry]
