Proteolytic processing of human factor VIII. Correlation of specific cleavages by thrombin, factor Xa, and activated protein C with activation and inactivation of factor VIII coagulant activity

Human factor VIII was isolated from commercial factor VIII concentrates and found to consist of multiple polypeptides with molecular weights ranging from 80 000 to 210 000. Immunological and amino acid sequence data identified these polypeptides as subunits of factor VIII. N-Terminal amino acid sequ...
