Background: Coagulation Factor III/Tissue Factor

Coagulation Factor III/Tissue Factor (TF), also known as thromboplastin and CD142, is a type I transmembrane protein found in a variety of cell types. It functions as a protein cofactor/receptor of Coagulation Factor VII, which is synthesized in the liver and circulated in the plasma (1). Upon binding of TF, the inactive factor VII is rapidly converted into activated VIIa. The resulting 1:1 complex of VIIa and TF initiates the coagulation pathway and has also important coagulation-independent functions such as angiogenesis (2). TF is synthesized as a 295 amino acid (aa) precursor,  with a signal peptide (aa 1-32), an extracellular domain (aa 33-251), a transmembrane region (aa 252-274) and a cytoplasmic tail (aa 275-295) (3‑6).
