It is a very rare blood coagulation disorder characterized by mucocutaneous bleeding symptoms. The severity of the bleeding manifestations correlates with blood factor II levels. Genetic variations in F2 may be a cause of susceptibility to ischemic stroke (ISCHSTR) [MIM: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. Defects in F2 are the cause of thrombophilia due to thrombin defect (THPH1) [MIM:188050. It is a multifactorial disorder of hemostasis characterized by abnormal platelet aggregation in response to various agents and recurrent thrombi formation. Note=A common genetic variation in the 3-prime untranslated region of the prothrombin gene is associated with elevated plasma prothrombin levels and an increased risk of venous thrombosis. Defects in F2 are associated with susceptibility to pregnancy loss, recurrent, type 2 (RPRGL2) [MIM:614390. 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. Function THRB_HUMAN Thrombin, which cleaves bonds after Arg and Lys, converts fibrinogen to fibrin and activates factors V, VII, VIII, XIII, and, in complex with thrombomodulin, protein C.

Publication Abstract from PubMed The structures of two mimetic inhibitor complexes of human alpha-thrombin have been determined by X-ray crystallography. One mimics a beta-turn with a bicyclic ring system; the other mimics two different active-site binding modes. The beta-turn mimetic is used to approximate a turn found in the conformation of fibrinopeptide A, which is catalytically released by thrombin in the activation of fibrinogen to fibrin. The binding of the second mimetic is a hybrid between normal substrate and the abnormal binding of the potent natural leech inhibitor hirudin. The binding of the beta-turn mimetic is tenuous, because it is like a substrate, while that of the substrate-hirudin hybrid is that of a tenacious inhibitor (which it is). Structurally retrospect modifications for rational design and improvement of both mimetic inhibitors are proposed.
