additional information | exposure of blood to foreign surfaces induces reciprocal conversion of factor XII to the active protease alpha-fXIIa. These so-called contact activation is initiated through activity intrinsic to single-chain factor XII. Pre-existing alpha-fXIIa is not required for induction of contact activation | Homo sapiens | |

R334A/R344A/R353A | in the presence of polyphosphate, the mutant converts factor XII to its active form alpha-fXIIa, and also converts factor XI to its active form fXIa. The mutant does not undergo autocatalysis to alpha-fXIIa in the presence of polyphosphate, and is resistant to cleavage by alpha-kallikrein and factor XIIa | Homo sapiens |
