The role of platelets in the activation of TAFI in model thrombi
Thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor inhibits fibrinolysis by removing C-terminal lysine residues from partially degraded fibrin. It is expressed by the liver and circulates in plasma as a zymogen TAFI, which can be activated to an active carboxypeptidase, TAFIa, by plasmin or thrombin. Throm...
