Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 2.65Å Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Disease F13A_HUMAN Defects in F13A1 are the cause of factor XIII subunit A deficiency (FA13AD) [MIM:613225. FA13AD is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a life-long bleeding tendency, impaired wound healing and spontaneous abortion in affected women. Function F13A_HUMAN Factor XIII is activated by thrombin and calcium ion to a transglutaminase that catalyzes the formation of gamma-glutamyl-epsilon-lysine cross-links between fibrin chains, thus stabilizing the fibrin clot. Also cross-link alpha-2-plasmin inhibitor, or fibronectin, to the alpha chains of fibrin. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.
