human factor X had four carbohydrate-attachment sites, namely, O-glycosidic linkages to Thr17 and Thr29, respectively, and N-glycosidic linkages to Asn39 and Asn49, respectively, in their activation peptides
Factor X is cleaved by factor IXa (in the intrinsic pathway), or by factor VIIa (in the extrinsic pathway)to release the activation peptide, and yield the active factor Xa. Zymogen human factor X has four carbohydrate-attachment sites, namely, O-glycosidic linkages to Thr17 and Thr29, respectively, and N-glycosidic linkages to Asn39 and Asn49, respectively, in their activation peptides
