Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function non-hemorrhagic proteinase that activates prothrombin (F2) calcium-independently. Activates factor X (F10) and hydrolyzes the Aalpha-chain and more slowly the Bbeta-chain of fibrin and fibrinogen without affecting the gamma chain. It induces neither detachment nor apoptosis of human endothelial cells and is also not able to trigger an endothelial proinflammatory cell response. Nitric oxide and prostacyclin levels released by endothelial cells are significantly increased after treatment with insularinase A.inhibits platelet aggregation induced by ADP, thrombin, platelet-activating factor and collagen. Acts by inhibiting fibrinogen interaction with platelet receptors GPIIb/GPIIIa (ITGA2B/ITGB3) (By similarity).
