Assessment of the protein interaction between coagulation factor XII and corn trypsin inhibitor by molecular docking and biochemical validation (2017)
Journal Article
Hamad, B. K., Pathak, M., Manna, R., Fischer, P. M., Emsley, J., & Dekker, L. V. (2017). Assessment of the protein interaction between coagulation factor XII and corn trypsin inhibitor by molecular docking and biochemical validation. Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 15(9), 1818-1828. https://doi.org/10.1111/jth.13773

Background: Corn trypsin inhibitor (CTI) has selectivity for serine proteases coagulation factor XII (FXII) and trypsin. CTI is in widespread use as a reagent that specifically inhibits the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation but not the extrinsic...
