Thrombin is a trypsin-like serine protease which is best known for its role in blood clotting. In humans, the F2 gene codes for prothrombin, which is also known as Coagulation Factor II.[2][3] Clevage of prothrombin to form activated α-thrombin is a key step in the final common pathway of blood clotting, because thrombin activates fibrin, which creates cross-linked fibrin clots.[4]
