[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FA8_HUMAN FA8_HUMAN] Defects in F8 are the cause of hemophilia A (HEMA) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/306700 306700]. A disorder of blood coagulation characterized by a permanent tendency to hemorrhage. About 50% of patients have severe hemophilia resulting in frequent spontaneous bleeding into joints, muscles and internal organs. Less severe forms are characterized by bleeding after trauma or surgery. Note=Of particular interest for the understanding of the function of F8 is the category of CRM (cross-reacting material) positive patients (approximately 5%) that have considerable amount of F8 in their plasma (at least 30% of normal), but the protein is non-functional; i.e. the F8 activity is much less than the plasma protein level. CRM-reduced is another category of patients in which the F8C antigen and activity are reduced to approximately the same level. Most mutations are CRM negative, and probably affect the folding and stability of the protein.<ref>PMID:3012775</ref> <ref>PMID:3122181</ref> <ref>PMID:2833855</ref> <ref>PMID:2835904</ref> <ref>PMID:2499363</ref> <ref>PMID:2506948</ref> <ref>PMID:2510835</ref> <ref>PMID:2495245</ref> <ref>PMID:2498882</ref> <ref>PMID:2104766</ref> <ref>PMID:2105106</ref> <ref>PMID:1973901</ref> <ref>PMID:2105906</ref> <ref>PMID:2106480</ref> <ref>PMID:2107542</ref> <ref>PMID:1908817</ref> <ref>PMID:1908096</ref> <ref>PMID:1851341</ref> <ref>PMID:1356412</ref> <ref>PMID:1639429</ref> <ref>PMID:1349567</ref> <ref>PMID:1301194</ref> <ref>PMID:1301932</ref> <ref>PMID:1301960</ref> <ref>PMID:8449505</ref> <ref>PMID:8322269</ref> <ref>PMID:7579394</ref> <ref>PMID:7794769</ref> <ref>PMID:7759074</ref> <ref>PMID:8644728</ref> <ref>PMID:8639447</ref> <ref>PMID:8759905</ref> <ref>PMID:9029040</ref> <ref>PMID:9326186</ref> <ref>PMID:9341862</ref> <ref>PMID:9886318</ref> <ref>PMID:9450898</ref> <ref>PMID:10215414</ref> <ref>PMID:9603440</ref> <ref>PMID:9452104</ref> <ref>PMID:9792405</ref> <ref>PMID:9829908</ref> <ref>PMID:9569180</ref> <ref>PMID:9569189</ref> <ref>PMID:10554831</ref> <ref>PMID:10338101</ref> <ref>PMID:10408784</ref> <ref>PMID:10404764</ref> <ref>PMID:10910910</ref> <ref>PMID:10910913</ref> <ref>PMID:10691849</ref> <ref>PMID:10886198</ref> <ref>PMID:10800171</ref> <ref>PMID:10896236</ref> <ref>PMID:10612839</ref> <ref>PMID:11410838</ref> <ref>PMID:11298607</ref> <ref>PMID:11442643</ref> <ref>PMID:11442647</ref> <ref>PMID:11554935</ref> <ref>PMID:11748850</ref> <ref>PMID:11341489</ref> <ref>PMID:12351418</ref> <ref>PMID:12406074</ref> <ref>PMID:12199686</ref> <ref>PMID:11857744</ref> <ref>PMID:12203998</ref> <ref>PMID:12325022</ref> <ref>PMID:11858487</ref> <ref>PMID:12195713</ref> <ref>PMID:12930394</ref> <ref>PMID:12871415</ref> <ref>PMID:12614369</ref> <ref>PMID:15682412</ref> <ref>PMID:15810915</ref> <ref>PMID:16805874</ref> <ref>PMID:18184865</ref> <ref>PMID:21371196</ref> 
== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FA8_HUMAN FA8_HUMAN] Factor VIII, along with calcium and phospholipid, acts as a cofactor for factor IXa when it converts factor X to the activated form, factor Xa.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
A 21 residue peptide from the C2 domain of the antihaemophilic factor VIII competes with factor VIII for membrane-binding sites in vitro. Here, we provide the structure and topography of the peptide in solution, on dodecylphosphocholine (DPC) micelles, determined using 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The peptide assumes an amphipathic structure comprising an extended N-terminal region and a C-terminal helix. The average root-mean-square deviation is 0.7+/-0.2 A for the superimposition of the backbone atoms of Ile6 to Arg18 on the lowest energy structure. Whereas the backbone conformation is similar to that in SDS micelles, the Trp11 side-chain orientation is dramatically changed. The indole ring is nearly parallel to the peptide backbone in SDS micelles but perpendicular in DPC micelles. Further, pKa values of the two histidines change by more than 1 pH unit in SDS relative to DPC, which localizes the imidazole rings to the interfacial region. Line-broadening induced by spin-labelled phosphatidylcholine shows that most of the amino acid side-chains that penetrate the DPC micelle are hydrophobic. Thus, the long axis of the peptide lies parallel to the micelle surface and the hydrophobic face of the alpha-helix provides hydrophobic membrane interaction. The large chemical shift changes shown by Trp11 and N-terminal amino acid residues in SDS relative to DPC indicate that this region may be involved in membrane phospholipid recognition. 1H-NMR assignments, CD spectra, one-dimensional 1H-NMR spectra, chemical-shift analysis and nuclear Overhauser effect information are reported in Supplementary Publication SUP 50184 (11 pages), which has been deposited at the British Library Document Supply Centre, Boston Spa, Wetherby, West Yorkshire LS23 7BQ, U.K, from whom copies can be obtained according to the terms indicated in Biochem. J. (1997) 321, 8.
