'''Antithrombin''' (AT) inactivates several enzymes of the coagulation cycle.  A-AT contains 4 occupied glycosylation sites and is found in blood palsma. B-AT contains only 3 occupied glycosylation sites.  AT-I refers to the absorption of thrombin to fibrin; AT-II and heparin interfere with the interactin of thrombin and fibrinogen; AT-III inactivates thrombin in plasma; AT-IV becomes activated during blood coagulation.

==3D structures of antithrombin==
'''Antithrombin''' (AT) inactivates several enzymes of the coagulation cycle. AT is relatively inactive until it binds the heparan sidechains of the microvasculature.<ref>PMID:15311269</ref><br />
▪ '''α-AT''' contains 4 occupied glycosylation sites and is found in blood palsma.<br />
▪ '''β-AT''' contains only 3 occupied glycosylation sites.<br />
▪ '''AT-I''' refers to the absorption of thrombin to fibrin.<br />
▪ '''AT-II''' and heparin interfere with the interaction of thrombin and fibrinogen.<br />
▪ '''AT-III''' inactivates thrombin in plasma.  For details see [[Student Projects for UMass Chemistry 423 Spring 2012-7|Student Projects for UMass Chemistry 423 Spring 2012-7 - Antithrombin III: Devourer of Memories]].<br />
▪ '''AT-IV''' becomes activated during blood coagulation.<br />

AT deficiency diseases are: Acquired AT deficiency and Inherited AT deficiency. AT deficiency is involved in thrombosis and pulmonary embolism.

AT activity is enhanced upon <scene name='46/466527/Cv/4'>binding to the anticoagulant drug heparin</scene>.


[[1e04]] – hb-AT-III
==Structural highlights==


[[1ath]], [[2znh]] – hAT-III
The binding of AT to the heparans or the heparin drug is to a core pentasaccharide. The binding induces conformational change of AT.
