Description
THBD Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 500 amino acids (22-515a.a) and having a molecular mass of 52.6kDa. THBD is fused to an 6 amino acid His-tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introduction
Thrombomodulin, also referred to THBD, is an endothelial cell-expressed, transmembrane glycoprotein that can form a complex with the coagulation factor, thrombin. This complex increasethe activation of protein C in the anticoagulant pathway by forming a 1:1 stoichiometric complex with thrombin. Thrombomodulinbound thrombin has procoagulant effect at the same time by inhibiting fibrinolysis by cleaving thrombinactivatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI) into its active form. Reduced levels of thrombomodulin or increased serum levels of THBD can correlate with pathogenesis of certain cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis and thrombosis. Furthermore, it associated with, diabetes mellitus, liver cirrhosis, cerebral & myocardial infarction, and multiple sclerosis.
