Background
Protein C is a vitamin K dependent serine protease zymogen. Purified human activated protein C selectively destroys factors Va and VIII:C in human plasma and thus has an important anticoagulant role. Protein C deficiency has been associated with inherited thrombophilia. In its primary structure, protein C is similar to the prothrombin group of blood coagulation factors. It most closely resembles factor X. Protein C is synthesized as a single chain, this precursor molecule is cleaved into a light chain and a heavy chain held together by a disulfide bond. The enzyme is then activated by thrombin, which cleaves a tetradecapeptide from the amino end of the heavy chain.Synonyms: Anticoagulant protein C, Autoprothrombin IIA, Blood coagulation factor XIV, Inactivator of coagulation factors Va and VIIIa, PROC1, Vitamin K-dependent protein C
