Thrombin light chain

Best example is PDB entry 3vxe and is shown in the viewer.

Molecule Thrombin light chain, also known as Thrombin light chain, Activation peptide fragment 2, Coagulation factor II, Prothrombin, Thrombin heavy chain and Activation peptide fragment 1.

Function

Thrombin, which cleaves bonds after Arg and Lys, converts fibrinogen to fibrin and activates factors V, VII, VIII, XIII, and, in complex with thrombomodulin, protein C. Functions in blood homeostasis, inflammation and wound healing.Data source: Uniprot P00734

Catalytic Activity

Selective cleavage of Arg-|-Gly bonds in fibrinogen to form fibrin and release fibrinopeptides A and B.Data source: Uniprot P00734
