epitope corresponding to amino acids 256-395 mapping near the C-terminus of Protein C of human origin
Modification Notes
Protein C is a vitamin K-dependent plasma protein that is produced in the liver and made up of two polypeptide chains. It is an important anti-coagulant activated by Thrombin bound to an endothelial surface receptor and it enzymatically cleaves activated forms of Factors V and VIII, thus inhibiting blood coagulation. Protein C is similar to the prothrombin group of blood coagulation factors in its primary structure. Normal protein C concentration in human plasma is approximately 1-3 ng/ml and the proenzyme concentration is approximately 3 µg/ml. Protein C deficiency is associated with inherited thrombophilia, a rare genetic disorder that predisposes affected individuals to venous thrombosis and habitual abortion.
