The natural substrate of factor Xa is prothromin, which is cleaved after the arginine in the sequence: Ile12-Asp13-Gly14-Arg15-Ile16- Val17-Glu18-Gly19. Arg15 binds in the S1 pocket, Gly14 binds the S2 pocket. Ile binds the S4 pocket.

The <scene name='Factor_Xa/Transparent_-_no_inhib_-_s1/3'>S1 pocket</scene> determines binding selectivity for factor Xa and is formed by loops in residues 214-220 and 189-195 that are linked by a Cys220-Cys191 disulfide bond. Residues 225-228 form the lower portion of the pocket.<ref>Factor X.

The <scene name='Factor_Xa/Transparent_-_no_inhib_-_s2/2'>S2 site</scene> of factor Xa is formed by the 90s loop which is positioned adjacent to His57. Consistent with glycine as the P2 element in prothrombin, S2 is a small, shallow pocket.<ref name="Inhib">PMID: 11172669</ref> | The <scene name='Factor_Xa/Transparent_-_no_inhib_-_s2/2'>S2 site</scene> of factor Xa is formed by the 90s loop which is positioned adjacent to His57.
