PROTEIN HAVING ANTICOAGULANT PROPERTIES

摘要

9727P/5977A 17972IB TITLE OF THE INVENTION PROTEINS HAVING ANTICOAGULANT PROPERTIES Proteins which specifically inhibit coagulation Factor Xa. The inhibitors, which do not inhibit Factor VIIa, kallikrein, trypsin, chymotrypsin, thrombin, urokinase, tissue plasminogen activator, plasmin, elastase, Factor XIa or S. aureus V8 protease, are polypeptides of 60 amino acid residues. The inhibitors may be purified from Ornithodoros moubata extract, synthesized, or produced using a recombinant DNA yeast expression system.
