Blood coagulation activity in humans increases with age. We previously identified two genetic elements, age-related stability element (ASE; GAGGAAG) and age-related increase element (AIE; unique stretch of dinucleotide repeats), which were responsible for age-related stable and increasing expression patterns, respectively, and together recapitulated normal age regulation of the human factor IX (hFIX) gene. Here we report the age-regulatory mechanisms of human anticoagulant protein C (hPC), which shows an age-stable pattern of circulatory levels. The murine protein C gene showed an age-related stable expression pattern in general agreement with that of the hPC. Through longitudinal analyses of transgenic mice carrying hPC minigenes, the hPC gene was found to have a functional age-related stability element (hPC ASE; CAGGAAG) in the 5'-upstream proximal region but was found to lack any age-related increase element. Three other ASE-like sequences present in the hPC gene, GAGGAAA and (G/C)AGGATG, also bound nuclear proteins but were not active in the age regulation of the hPC gene. Functional hPC ASE and hFIX ASE were apparently generated through convergent evolution, and hFIX ASE can fully substitute for the hPC ASE in conferring age-related stable expression pattern of the hPC gene. In the presence of the hPC ASE, hFIX AIE can convert the age-stable expression pattern of the hPC gene to a hFIX-like age-related increase pattern. These results support the universality of ASE and AIE functions across different genes. Clearance of hPC protein from the circulation was not significantly affected by age. We now have established the basic mechanisms responsible for the age-related increase of blood coagulation activity. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies have been used to demonstrate a polymorphism of human plasma coagulation factor IX antigen in double antibody solid-phase immunoradiometric assays. This polymorphism is detected in an assay where a monoclonal antibody (A-1) adsorbed to microtiter wells is used to bind factor IX from diluted plasma samples. Plasma samples with the factor IX polymorphism have less than 0.2 U/ml of apparent antigen when tested with the A-1 antibody, while assays with other monoclonal antibodies and assays with goat antisera to factor IX show normal amounts of factor IX antigen. Factor IX coagulant activity was normal in samples from donors with the polymorphism. The thin-layer polyacrylamide gel isoelectric focusing pattern of factor IX purified from a donor with the factor IX polymorphism (IXp) was identical to that obtained with factor IX prepared from a donor who did not have the polymorphism (IXn). Purified radiolabeled factor IX prepared from a donor with the polymorphism showed a Ka for the A-1 antibody that was threefold less than that measured for IXn. The gene frequency of IXp in male blood donors is 0.25. This polymorphism may be useful as a marker for the X chromosome in genetic studies on plasma samples. Further studies are necessary to determine the explanation for decreased reaction of IXp with the A-1 monoclonal antibody. 相似文献

Deficiency in coagulation factor IX, a plasma glycoprotein constituent of the clotting cascade, results in hemophilia B, an inherited recessive X-linked bleeding disorder. Some affected individuals, referred to as antigen positive or CRM+, express an inactive factor IX gene product at normal levels and are expected to have natural mutations altering domains of the molecule that are critical for its correct function. The serine protease catalytic domain of activated factor IX, encoded by exons VII and VIII of the gene, is a possible target for such mutations. We designed a strategy allowing rapid analysis of this region through enzymatic amplification of genomic DNA, analysis of the amplification products by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, and direct sequencing of the fragments displaying an altered melting behavior. This procedure permitted us to characterize two previously undescribed mutations. Factor IX Angers is a G-to-A substitution generating an Arg in place of a Gly at amino acid 396 of the mature factor IX protein. Factor IX Bordeaux is an A-to-T substitution introducing a nonsense codon in place of the normal codon for Lys at position 411. Moreover, the already described factor IX Vancouver defect was found in three apparently independent families. These results provide further insight into the molecular heterogeneity of hemophilia B. In addition, we demonstrate the usefulness of this rapid screening procedure, which has broad applications in human genetics and can be used as an alternative to RFLP analysis in carrier detection or prenatal diagnosis studies. 相似文献

Coagulation factor IX is thought to circulate in the blood as an inactive zymogen before being activated in the coagulation process. The effect of coagulation factor IX on cells is poorly understood. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of intact coagulation factor IX and its cleavage fragments on cell behavior. A431 cells (derived from human squamous cell carcinoma), Pro5 cells (derived from mouse embryonic endothelial cells), Cos7 cells, and human umbilical vein endothelial cells were utilized in this study. The effects of coagulation factor IX and its cleavage fragments on cell behavior were investigated in several types of experiments, including wound‐healing assays and modified Boyden chamber assays. The effect of coagulation factor IX depended on its processing; full‐length coagulation factor IX suppressed cell migration, increased adhesion to matrix, and enhanced intercellular adhesion. In contrast, activated coagulation factor IX enhanced cell migration, suppressed adhesion to matrix, and inhibited intercellular adhesion. An activation peptide that is removed during the coagulation process was found to be responsible for the activity of full‐length coagulation factor IX, and the activity of activated coagulation factor IX was localized to an EGF domain of the coagulation factor IX light chain. Full‐length coagulation factor IX has a sedative effect on cells, which is counteracted by activated coagulation factor IX in vitro. Thus, coagulation factor IX may play roles before, during, and after the coagulation process. 相似文献

Summary Linkage analysis on a family with fragile X-linked mental retardation was performed using a Taq 1 restriction fragment length polymorphism detected by a cloned human coagulation factor IX cDNA. Two affected brothers in this sibship were found to have different factor IX RFLP alleles, indicating a recombinational event occurred between the two genes. Our data therefore indicate that the gene responsible for fragile X-linked mental retardation is not as tightly linked to the factor IX gene as the previously published data may suggest. 相似文献

Studies of the mechanisms of blood coagulation zymogen activation demonstrate that exosites (sites on the activating complex distinct from the protease active site) play key roles in macromolecular substrate recognition. We investigated the importance of exosite interactions in recognition of factor IX by the protease factor XIa. Factor XIa cleavage of the tripeptide substrate S2366 was inhibited by the active site inhibitors p-aminobenzamidine (Ki 28 +/- 2 microM) and aprotinin (Ki 1.13 +/- 0.07 microM) in a classical competitive manner, indicating that substrate and inhibitor binding to the active site was mutually exclusive. In contrast, inhibition of factor XIa cleavage of S2366 by factor IX (Ki 224 +/- 32 nM) was characterized by hyperbolic mixed-type inhibition, indicating that factor IX binds to free and S2366-bound factor XIa at exosites. Consistent with this premise, inhibition of factor XIa activation of factor IX by aprotinin (Ki 0.89 +/- 0.52 microM) was non-competitive, whereas inhibition by active site-inhibited factor IXa beta was competitive (Ki 0.33 +/- 0.05 microM). S2366 cleavage by isolated factor XIa catalytic domain was competitively inhibited by p-aminobenzamidine (Ki 38 +/- 14 microM) but was not inhibited by factor IX, consistent with loss of factor IX-binding exosites on the non-catalytic factor XI heavy chain. The results support a model in which factor IX binds initially to exosites on the factor XIa heavy chain, followed by interaction at the active site with subsequent bond cleavage, and support a growing body of evidence that exosite interactions are critical determinants of substrate affinity and specificity in blood coagulation reactions. 相似文献

The endothelial cell binding determinant of human factor IX resides in the gamma-carboxyglutamic acid domain. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The blood coagulation factor IX(a) binds specifically to a site on endothelial cells with a Kd of 2.0-3.0 nM. A number of previous studies have attempted to define the region(s) of factor IX(a) that mediate this interaction. These studies suggested that there are two regions of factor IX(a), the gamma-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla) domain and the epidermal growth factor like (EGF-like) domains, that mediate high-affinity binding to endothelial cells. Recently, however, the participation of the EGF1 domain has been excluded from the interaction. This indicated that if there was an EGF component of factor IX contributing to the binding affinity, then it must be in the second EGF-like domain. In order to further evaluate this relationship, we performed competitive binding experiments between 125I plasma factor IX and a set of six chimeric proteins composed of portions of factor VII and factor IX. Our data suggest that the high-affinity interaction between factor IX and the endothelial cell binding site is mediated by the factor IX Gla domain and that the factor IX EGF domains are not involved in binding specificity. 相似文献

Functional hemostatic pathways are critical for the survival of all vertebrates and have been evolving for more than 400 million years. The overwhelming majority of studies of hemostasis in vertebrates have focused on mammals with very sparse attention paid to reptiles. There have been virtually no studies of the coagulation pathway in sea turtles whose ancestors date back to the Jurassic period. Sea turtles are often exposed to rapidly altered environmental conditions during diving periods. This may reduce their blood pH during prolonged hypoxic dives. This report demonstrates that five species of turtles possess only one branch of the mammalian coagulation pathway, the extrinsic pathway. Mixing studies of turtle plasmas with human factor-deficient plasmas indicate that the intrinsic pathway factors VIII and IX are present in turtle plasma. These two factors may play a significant role in supporting the extrinsic pathway by feedback loops. The intrinsic factors, XI and XII are not detected which would account for the inability of reagents to induce coagulation via the intrinsic pathway in vitro. The analysis of two turtle factors, factor II (prothrombin) and factor X, demonstrates that they are antigenically/functionally similar to the corresponding human factors. The turtle coagulation pathway responds differentially to both pH and temperature relative to each turtle species and relative to human samples. The coagulation time (prothrombin time) increases as the temperature decreases between 37 and 15 °C. The increased time follows a linear relationship, with similar slopes for loggerhead, Kemps ridley and hawksbill turtles as well as for human samples. Leatherback turtle samples show a dramatic nonlinear increased time below 23 °C, and green turtle sample responses were similar but less dramatic. All samples also showed increased prothrombin times as the pH decreased from 7.8 to 6.4, except for three turtle species. The prothrombin times decreased, to varying extents, in a linear fashion relative to reduced pH with the rate of change greatest in leatherbacks>greenloggerhead turtles. All studies were conducted with reagents developed for human samples which would impact on the quantitative results with the turtle samples, but are not likely to alter the qualitative results. These comparative studies of the coagulation pathway in sea turtles and humans could enhance our knowledge of structure/function relationships and evolution of coagulation factors. 相似文献

A markedly reduced blood flow, an elevation of hematocrit and an increased aggregability of erythrocytes [red blood cells
(RBCs)] are risk factors for venous thrombus formation (intravascular blood coagulation). However, these risk factors alone
seem to be insufficient to stimulate the coagulation cascade in the absence of a primary triggering mechanism. In this paper,
our rheological and biochemical studies on blood coagulation, especially focusing on procoagulant activity of RBCs, are summarized.
It is shown that the intrinsic coagulation pathway is triggered by the activation of factor IX (F-IX) by RBCs. The F-IX-activating
enzyme in normal human erythrocyte (RBC) membranes was purified, identified and characterized. The activation of F-IX by RBCs
was enhanced by a decrease in flow shear rate and an elevation in hematocrit. The procoagulant ability of RBCs and coagulation
of blood obtained from individuals with a relatively high level of hypercoagulability were enhanced compared with those for
normals. The studies demonstrated a new triggering mechanism for coagulation or thrombus formation that may occur under stagnant
flow conditions. 相似文献

Localization of the human tissue factor recognition determinant of human factor VIIa 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Tissue factor is an integral membrane glycoprotein that serves as an essential cofactor for the blood coagulation factor VIIa. Recent studies have attempted to localize the tissue factor recognition determinant of human factor VIIa. While several regions of factor VIIa have been implicated as important for tissue factor binding, the high affinity tissue factor recognition determinant of human factor VIIa is unknown. In order to define the determinant, we constructed a set of six chimeric proteins composed of portions of factor VII and factor IX. We then utilized the chimeras in competition experiments with 125I-labeled factor VIIa for recombinant tissue factor bound to an Immobilon-P membrane. The data indicate that the high affinity tissue factor recognition determinant of human factor VIIa is within the epidermal growth factor domains. 相似文献

The coagulation cascade that occurs in mammalian plasma involves a large number of plasma proteins that participate in a stepwise manner and eventually give rise to the formation of thrombin. This enzyme then converts fibrinogen to an insoluble fibrin clot. This series of reactions involves a number of glycoproteins that particupate as enzymes as well as cofactors. These proteins that circulate in the blood in a precursor or zymogen form are multifunctional proteins that share many common segments or domains. One group includes the vitamin K-dependent glycoproteins (prothrombin, factor IX, factor X, and protein C) that show considerable homology in both their amino acid sequences and their gene structures. The proteins that participate in the contact or early phase of the blood coagulation cascade include plasma prekallikrein, factor XII, and factor IX. The amino-terminal regions of both factor XI and plasma prekallikrein contain four tandem repeats of about 90 amino acids, and these tandem repeats show considerable amino acid sequence homology. Factor XII contains four different domains in the amino-terminai region of the protein, including a kringle structure, two growth factor domains, and type I and type II finger domains. The finger domains were first identified in fibronectin. The carboxyl-terminal portion of plasma prekallikrein, factor XII, and factor XI contains the serine or protease portion of the molecule. These various plasma proteins that share common domains appear to have evolved by gene shuffling that may have, in some cases, involved introns. 相似文献

Blood coagulation can be initiated when factor VII(a) binds to its cofactor tissue factor. This factor VIIa/tissue factor complex proteolytically activates factors IX and X, which eventually leads to the formation of a fibrin clot. Plasma contains a lipoprotein-associated coagulation inhibitor (LACI) which inhibits factor Xa directly and, in a Xa-dependent manner, also inhibits the factor VIIa/tissue factor complex. Here we report the cloning of the human LACI gene and the elucidation of its intron-exon organization. The LACI gene, which spans about 70 kb, consists of nine exons separated by eight introns. As has been found for other Kunitz-type protease inhibitors, the domain structure of human LACI is reflected in the intron-exon organization of the gene. The 5' terminus of the LACI mRNA has been determined by primer extension and S1 nuclease mapping. The putative promoter was examined and found to contain two consensus sequences for AP-1 binding and one for NF-1 binding, but no TATA consensus promoter element. 相似文献

The gamma-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla) domains of the vitamin K-dependent blood coagulation proteins contain 10 highly conserved Gla residues within the first 33 residues, but factor IX is unique in possessing 2 additional Gla residues at positions 36 and 40. To determine their importance, factor IX species lacking these Gla residues were isolated from heterologously expressed human factor IX. Using ion-exchange chromatography, peptide mapping, mass spectrometry, and N-terminal sequencing, we have purified and identified two partially carboxylated recombinant factor IX species; factor IX/gamma 40E is uncarboxylated at residue 40 and factor IX/gamma 36,40E is uncarboxylated at both residues 36 and 40. These species were compared with the fully gamma-carboxylated recombinant factor IX, unfractionated recombinant factor IX, and plasma-derived factor IX. As monitored by anti-factor IX:Ca (II)-specific antibodies and by the quenching of intrinsic fluorescence, all these factor IX species underwent the Ca(II)-induced conformational transition required for phospholipid membrane binding and bound equivalently to phospholipid vesicles composed of phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylcholine, and phosphatidylethanolamine. Endothelial cell binding was also similar in all species, with half-maximal inhibition of the binding of 125I-labeled plasma-derived factor IX at concentrations of 2-6 nM. Functionally, factor IX/gamma 36,40E and factor IX/gamma 40E were similar to fully gamma-carboxylated recombinant factor IX and plasma-derived factor IX in their coagulant activity and in their ability to participate in the activation of factor X in the tenase complex both with synthetic phospholipid vesicles and activated platelets. However, Gla 36 and Gla 40 represent part of the epitope targeted by anti-factor IX:Mg(II)-specific antibodies because these antibodies bound factor IX preferentially to factor IX/gamma 36,40E and factor IX/gamma 40E. These results demonstrate that the gamma-carboxylation of glutamic acid residues 36 and 40 in human factor IX is not required for any function of factor IX examined. 相似文献

The insect salivary protein, prolixin-S, inhibits factor IXa generation and Xase complex formation in the blood coagulation pathway 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Prolixin-S is a salivary anticoagulant of the blood-sucking insect, Rhodnius prolixus, and known as an inhibitor of the intrinsic Xase. We report here its inhibitory mechanisms with additional important anticoagulation activities. We found prolixin-S specifically bound to factor IX/IXa in the presence of Ca(2+) ions. Light scattering and surface plasmon resonance studies showed that prolixin-S interfered with factor IX/IXa binding to the phospholipid membrane, indicating that prolixin-S inhibit Xase activity of factor IXa by interference with its Xase complex formation. Furthermore, reconstitution experiments showed that prolixin-S binding to factor IX strongly inhibited factor IXa generation by factor XIa. We also found that prolixin-S inhibited factor IXa generation by factor VIIa-tissue factor complex and factor IXalpha generation by factor Xa. These results suggest that prolixin-S inhibits both intrinsic and extrinsic coagulations by sequential inhibition of all coagulation pathways in which factor IX participates. It was also suggested that prolixin-S may bind to factor IX/IXa by recognizing conformational change of the Gla domain induced by Ca(2+) binding. 相似文献

Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vectors allow for sustained expression of transgene products from mouse liver following a single portal vein administration. Here a rAAV vector expressing human coagulation factor F.IX (hF.IX), AAV-EF1alpha-F.IX (hF.IX expression was controlled by the human elongation factor 1alpha [EF1alpha] enhancer-promoter) was injected into mice via the portal vein or tail vein, or directly into the liver parenchyma, and the forms of rAAV vector DNA extracted from the liver were analyzed. Southern blot analyses suggested that rAAV vector integrated into the host genome, forming mainly head-to-tail concatemers with occasional deletions of the inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) and their flanking sequences. To further confirm vector integration, we developed a shuttle vector system and isolated and sequenced rAAV vector-cellular DNA junctions from transduced mouse livers. Analysis of 18 junctions revealed various rearrangements, including ITR deletions and amplifications of the vector and cellular DNA sequences. The breakpoints of the vector were mostly located within the ITRs, and cellular DNA sequences were recombined with the vector genome in a nonhomologous manner. Two rAAV-targeted DNA sequences were identified as the mouse rRNA gene and the alpha1 collagen gene. These observations serve as direct evidence of rAAV integration into the host genome of mouse liver and allow us to begin to elucidate the mechanisms involved in rAAV integration into tissues in vivo. 相似文献

Localization by in situ hybridization of the coagulation factor IX gene and of two polymorphic DNA probes with respect to the fragile X site 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Summary The coagulation factor IX gene and two other polymorphic loci corresponding to DNA probes 52 A and St 14 have been previously localized in the q27 to qter region of the human X chromosome. In order to study their localization with respect to the fragile site at Xq27-28, we have hybridized the three DNA probes to metaphase chromosomes of a boy with fragile X mental retardation. We show that probe 52A is located in the proximal part of the Xq27 band, while the coagulation factor IX gene is on the distal part of this band, but proximal to the fragile site. The very polymorphic St 14 probe is located in the distal part of the Xq28 band, on the other side of the fragile site. 相似文献
