Structural highlights
FunctionTF_HUMAN Initiates blood coagulation by forming a complex with circulating factor VII or VIIa. The [TF:VIIa] complex activates factors IX or X by specific limited protolysis. TF plays a role in normal hemostasis by initiating the cell-surface assembly and propagation of the coagulation protease cascade.[1] Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedProof of concept experiments have shown that tissue factor/factor VIIa inhibitors have antithrombotic activity without enhancing bleeding propensity. Starting from lead compounds generated by a biased combinatorial approach, phenylglycine amide tissue factor/factor VIIa inhibitors with low nanomolar affinity and good selectivity against other serine proteases of the coagulation cascade were designed, using the guidance of X-ray structural analysis and molecular modelling.
