Factor XII heavy chain Proteins and Enzymes

The F12 gene encodes a 615 amino acid long, 67 kDA serum glycoprotein coagulation factor XII that is eventually cleaved into four chains. Factor XII functions in the initiation of blood coagulation, fibrinolysis, as well as in the creation of bradykinin and angiotension. F12 participates in cell adhesion plasmin signaling, blood coagulation signaling pathways, MSP-RON signaling, intrinsic prothrombin activation pathways, and blood clotting cascades. It interacts with Genes CD93, MMP13, EPAS1, ...
