To have a physiologically active factor IX, two cleaves must occur to remove a 35 amino acid region that precedes the catalytic region. | ||
The first cleave is at Arg145, generating an inactive FIXα. The second cleavage is at Arg180 results in a catalytically active molecule FIXaβ. This resulting heterodimer is held by a disulfide bridge at Cys132-Cys289.

Upon cleave at Arg180, Val181 can form a salt bridge with Asp364, which is a characteristic of active <scene name='Factor_IX/Ixstructure_chainc/2'>serine proteases</scene>. The active FIXa, can then interact with its cofactor, FVIIIa, to form a membrane-bound Xase complex, which activated FX to FXa. | The first cleave is at Arg145, generating an inactive FIXα.
