Expression of Human Protein C in Transgenic Tobacco
Human Protein C (hPC) is a vitamin K-dependent serine protease that has a critical role in the naturally-occurring anticoagulant pathway. Upon activation of the zymogen by thrombin at the endothelial cell surface, the active form of hPC has anticoagulant activity in hemostasis due to its ability to …

Identification and characterisation of novel interactors of surfactant protein C
Inherited pathogenic variants of surfactant protein C (SFTPC) can cause familial pulmonary fibrosis. The most common, SFTPC-I73T, aberrantly localises to the plasma membrane and causes alveolar type 2 (AT2) dysfunction via a poorly understood toxic gain-of-function. Understanding the mechanisms of …

Potential sources for the large scale production of human protein C
The vitamin K-dependent family of proteins (VKDs) include prothrombin, factors VII, IX, and X, and protein C (hPC) is synthesized in the liver and act to maintains normal hemostasis. such as properly regulated clotting. An imbalance of any of these pro- or anti-clotting proteins result in …

Haploinsufficiency of Cardiac Myosin Binding Protein-C in the Development of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
… and sarcomere disarray. Mutations in sarcomeric protein encoding genes have been established as causative for HCM.</p><p>The gene MYBPC3, encoding cardiac myosin binding protein-C (cMyBP-C), is the second most commonly mutated gene in HCM cases. As a majority of these mutations have been …

Analysis of the role of outer surface protein C (OspC) in Borrelia burgdorferi pathogenesis
… cycle is through the expression of outer surface protein C (OspC). OspC is a surface exposed lipoprotein encoded on circular plasmid 26 that forms homodimers on the bacterial surface and has distinct conserved and variable portions of sequence. When ospC is deleted, the spirochetes are unable to …

Arterial Thrombosis in Factor V Leiden or Activated Protein C Resistance. Clinical and Experimental Studies.
… an avalanche of studies establishing Activated protein C (APC) resistance due to Factor V Leiden mutation as the most prevalent genetic risk factor, yet known, for venous thromboembolism. This has been documented in 20-60% of patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Whether such propensity also …

A Molecular Genetic Investigation of the Regulation of Outer Surface Protein C in Borrelia Burgdorferi: Identification and Characterization of the Novel Regulatory Protein BBD18
… and subsequently alter their gene expression and protein profiles. As part of this adaptation, spirochetes within the tick midgut downregulate outer surface protein (Osp) A and upregulate OspC. Although OspC is an essential B. burgdorferi virulence factor needed for early mammalian infection, it …

Development of Methods for Measuring Protein C Inhibitor and Antithrombin: Use of Monoclonal Antibodies against the Reactive Center Loop-Inserted Forms of the Serpins
Protein C inhibitor (PCI) and antithrombin (AT) are serine protease inhibitors (serpins) that are involved in the regulation of coagulation. Like other inhibitory serpins, PCI and AT adopt different structural conformations that are related to their functions. The cleaved, inactive form is a result …
