General annotation (Comments)

Function

Thrombin-like snake venom serine protease. Exhibits strong N-p-tosyl-L-arginine methyl esterase activity, hydrolyzes tripeptide nitroanilide derivatives weakly or not at all, and specifically hydrolyzes the alpha chain of fibrinogen.

Catalytic activity

Selective cleavage of Arg-|-Xaa bond in fibrinogen, to form fibrin, and release fibrinopeptide A. The specificity of further degradation of fibrinogen varies with species origin of the enzyme.

Enzyme regulation

Inactivated by antipain, PMSF, TPCK, leupeptin, pepstatin, EDTA, and E-64 (trans-epoxysuccinylleucylamido(4-guanidino)butane).

Subcellular location

Secreted.

Tissue specificity

Expressed by the venom gland.

Post-translational modification

Glycosylated. Ref.1

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Snake venom subfamily.

Contains 1 peptidase S1 domain.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:
