DiseaseFA5_HUMAN Defects in F5 are the cause of factor V deficiency (FA5D) [MIM:227400; also known as Owren parahemophilia. It is a hemorrhagic diastesis.[1] [2] Defects in F5 are the cause of thrombophilia due to activated protein C resistance (THPH2) [MIM:188055. THPH2 is a hemostatic disorder due to defective degradation of factor Va by activated protein C. It is characterized by a poor anticoagulant response to activated protein C resulting in tendency to thrombosis.[3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Defects in F5 are a cause of susceptibility to Budd-Chiari syndrome (BDCHS) [MIM:600880. A syndrome caused by obstruction of hepatic venous outflow involving either the hepatic veins or the terminal segment of the inferior vena cava. Obstructions are generally caused by thrombosis and lead to hepatic congestion and ischemic necrosis. Clinical manifestations observed in the majority of patients include hepatomegaly, right upper quadrant pain and abdominal ascites. Budd-Chiari syndrome is associated with a combination of disease states including primary myeloproliferative syndromes and thrombophilia due to factor V Leiden, protein C deficiency and antithrombin III deficiency. Budd-Chiari syndrome is a rare but typical complication in patients with polycythemia vera. Defects in F5 may be a cause of susceptibility to ischemic stroke (ISCHSTR) [MIM:601367; also known as cerebrovascular accident or cerebral infarction. A stroke is an acute neurologic event leading to death of neural tissue of the brain and resulting in loss of motor, sensory and/or cognitive function. Ischemic strokes, resulting from vascular occlusion, is considered to be a highly complex disease consisting of a group of heterogeneous disorders with multiple genetic and environmental risk factors.[8] Defects in F5 are associated with susceptibility to pregnancy loss, recurrent, type 1 (RPRGL1) [MIM:614389. RPRGL1 is a common complication of pregnancy, resulting in spontaneous abortion before the fetus has reached viability. The term includes all miscarriages from the time of conception until 24 weeks of gestation. Recurrent pregnancy loss is defined as 3 or more consecutive spontaneous abortions.[9] FunctionFA5_HUMAN Central regulator of hemostasis. It serves as a critical cofactor for the prothrombinase activity of factor Xa that results in the activation of prothrombin to thrombin. Publication Abstract from PubMedBACKGROUND: Coagulation factor (F)V features an A1-A2-B-A3-C1-C2 domain organization and functions as the inactive precursor of FVa, a component of the prothrombinase complex required for rapid thrombin generation in the penultimate step of the coagulation cascade. An intramolecular interaction within the large B domain (residues 710-1545) involves the basic region (BR, residues 963-1008) and acidic region (AR, residues 1493-1537) and locks FV in its inactive state. However, structural information on this important regulatory interaction or on the separate architecture of the AR and BR remains elusive due to conformational disorder of the B domain. OBJECTIVES: To reveal the structure of the BR-AR interaction or of its separate components. METHODS: The structure of FV is solved by cryogenic electron microscopy. RESULTS: A new 3.05 A resolution cryogenic electron microscopy structure of FV confirms the overall organization of the A and C domains but resolves the segment 1507 to 1545 within a largely disordered B domain. The segment contains most of the AR and is organized as recently reported in FV short, a spliced variant of FV with a significantly shorter and less disordered B domain. CONCLUSION: The similar architecture of the AR in FV and FV short provides structural context for physiologically important interactions of this region with the BR in FV and with the basic C-terminal end of tissue factor pathway inhibitor alpha in FV short.
