[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FA5_HUMAN FA5_HUMAN] Defects in F5 are the cause of factor V deficiency (FA5D) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/227400 227400]; also known as Owren parahemophilia. It is a hemorrhagic diastesis.<ref>PMID:10942390</ref> <ref>PMID:12393490</ref>   Defects in F5 are the cause of thrombophilia due to activated protein C resistance (THPH2) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/188055 188055]. THPH2 is a hemostatic disorder due to defective degradation of factor Va by activated protein C. It is characterized by a poor anticoagulant response to activated protein C resulting in tendency to thrombosis.<ref>PMID:9454742</ref> <ref>PMID:11435304</ref> <ref>PMID:11858490</ref> <ref>PMID:14617013</ref> <ref>PMID:14695241</ref>   Defects in F5 are a cause of susceptibility to Budd-Chiari syndrome (BDCHS) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/600880 600880]. A syndrome caused by obstruction of hepatic venous outflow involving either the hepatic veins or the terminal segment of the inferior vena cava. Obstructions are generally caused by thrombosis and lead to hepatic congestion and ischemic necrosis. Clinical manifestations observed in the majority of patients include hepatomegaly, right upper quadrant pain and abdominal ascites. Budd-Chiari syndrome is associated with a combination of disease states including primary myeloproliferative syndromes and thrombophilia due to factor V Leiden, protein C deficiency and antithrombin III deficiency. Budd-Chiari syndrome is a rare but typical complication in patients with polycythemia vera.  Defects in F5 may be a cause of susceptibility to ischemic stroke (ISCHSTR) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/601367 601367]; also known as cerebrovascular accident or cerebral infarction. A stroke is an acute neurologic event leading to death of neural tissue of the brain and resulting in loss of motor, sensory and/or cognitive function. Ischemic strokes, resulting from vascular occlusion, is considered to be a highly complex disease consisting of a group of heterogeneous disorders with multiple genetic and environmental risk factors.<ref>PMID:15534175</ref>   Defects in F5 are associated with susceptibility to pregnancy loss, recurrent, type 1 (RPRGL1) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/614389 614389]. RPRGL1 is a common complication of pregnancy, resulting in spontaneous abortion before the fetus has reached viability. The term includes all miscarriages from the time of conception until 24 weeks of gestation. Recurrent pregnancy loss is defined as 3 or more consecutive spontaneous abortions.<ref>PMID:11018168</ref> 
== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FA5_HUMAN FA5_HUMAN] Central regulator of hemostasis. It serves as a critical cofactor for the prothrombinase activity of factor Xa that results in the activation of prothrombin to thrombin.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Coagulation factor Va (fVa) is the cofactor component of the prothrombinase complex required for rapid generation of thrombin from prothrombin in the penultimate step of the coagulation cascade. In addition, fVa is a target for proteolytic inactivation by activated protein C (APC). Like other protein-protein interactions in the coagulation cascade, the fVa-APC interaction has long posed a challenge to structural biology and its molecular underpinnings remain unknown. A recent cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of fVa has revealed the arrangement of its A1-A2-A3-C1-C2 domains and the environment of the sites of APC cleavage at R306 and R506. Here we report the cryo-EM structure of the fVa-APC complex at 3.15 A resolution where the protease domain of APC engages R506 in the A2 domain of fVa mainly through electrostatic interactions between positively charged residues in the 30- and 70- loops of APC and an electronegative surface of fVa. The auxiliary Gla and EGF domains of APC are highly dynamic and point to solvent, without making contacts with fVa. Binding of APC displaces a large portion of the A2 domain of fVa and projects the 654VKCIPDDDEDSYEIFEP670 segment as a "latch", or exosite ligand, over the 70-loop of the enzyme. The latch induces a large conformational change of the autolysis loop of APC which in turn promotes docking of R506 into the primary specificity pocket. The cryo-EM structure of the fVa-APC complex validates the bulk of existing biochemical data and offers molecular context for a key regulatory interaction of the coagulation cascade.
