Background
CD141/Thrombomodulin is an exclusively endothelial cell surface glycoprotein that forms a 1:1 complex with thrombin. Binding of thrombin to this high-affinity receptor alters its specificity toward several substrates. The complex activates protein C approximately 1000 times faster than thrombin alone. Activated protein C degrades clotting factors V and VIII, thus, thrombomodulin converts thrombin into a physiologic anticoagulant. Thrombomodulin is also found in the circulatory and urinary systems, the physiologic significance of this is obscure.Synonyms: Fetomodulin, THRM, Thrombomodulin
