Synthesized peptide derived from human PROC (light chain, Cleaved-Leu179)
Alternative Names:
Vitamin K-dependent protein C (EC 3.4.21.69, Anticoagulant protein C, Autoprothrombin IIA, Blood coagulation factor XIV) [Cleaved into: Vitamin K-dependent protein C light chain, Vitamin K-dependent protein C heavy chain, Activation peptide]
This gene encodes a vitamin K-dependent plasma glycoprotein. The encoded protein is cleaved to its activated form by the thrombin-thrombomodulin complex. This activated form contains a serine protease domain and functions in degradation of the activated
