Disease
FA10_HUMAN Defects in F10 are the cause of factor X deficiency (FA10D) [MIM:227600. A hemorrhagic disease with variable presentation. Affected individuals can manifest prolonged nasal and mucosal hemorrhage, menorrhagia, hematuria, and occasionally hemarthrosis. Some patients do not have clinical bleeding diathesis.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17]
Function
FA10_HUMAN Factor Xa is a vitamin K-dependent glycoprotein that converts prothrombin to thrombin in the presence of factor Va, calcium and phospholipid during blood clotting.
Publication Abstract from PubMed
The prothrombinase complex, comprised of factor (f) Xa and fVa, converts prothrombin to thrombin through sequential cleavage at two sites in a rapid and processive manner. The molecular basis of prothrombin processing is an enzymatical mystery that to solve requires structural insight into how the substrate and intermediate bind to prothrombinase. Here we present two 3.1 A cryo-EM structures of prothrombinase bound to prothrombin and to meizothrombin. The prothrombin complex revealed a surprising interaction between the end of the heavy chain of fVa with exosite I of prothrombin, accounting for 70% of the contact interface. Triggering of the zymogen-to-protease conformational change following cleavage at Arg320 alters all domain-domain and fVa interactions observed for prothrombin, and results in a large-scale rearrangement of meizothrombin that presents the second cleavage site (Arg271) for processing. Together, these structures reveal a remarkable enzymatic mechanism that requires the active participation of the substrate itself, and introduces a new paradigm of 'substrate allostery'.
