Thrombin is a Na+-activated, allosteric serine protease that plays opposing functional roles in blood coagulation. Binding of Na+ is the major driving force behind the procoagulant, prothrombotic and signaling functions of the enzyme, but is dispensable for cleavage of the anticoagulant protein C.

Thrombin is an enzyme produced during blood coagulation that is crucial to the formation of a stable clot. Thrombin cleaves soluble fibrinogen into fibrin, which polymerizes and forms an insoluble, stabilizing gel around the growing clot.

Thrombin induces ACSL4-dependent ferroptosis during cerebral ischemia/reperfusion
Ischemic stroke represents a significant danger to human beings, especially the elderly. Interventions are only available to remove the clot, and the mechanism of neuronal death during ischemic stroke is still in debate.

The role of thrombin in haemostasis
Thrombin is a multifunctional serine protease generated in injured cells. The generation of thrombin in coagulation plays a central role in the functioning of haemostasis.

Negatively charged phospholipids stimulate factor XI activation by thrombin
Introduction: Coagulation factor XI (FXI) is the zymogen of the serine-protease FXIa, which contributes to thrombin formation by activating factor IX.

Structure and behavior of human α-thrombin upon ligand recognition: thermodynamic and molecular dynamics studies. [PDF]
Thrombin is a serine proteinase that plays a fundamental role in coagulation. In this study, we address the effects of ligand site recognition by alpha-thrombin on conformation and energetics in solution.
