Inhibition of FXa-mediated prothrombin activation by synthetic peptides derived from F2. (A) Relative rates of prothrombin activation in the presence of 300 nM prothrombin, 5 mM CaCl2, 5 μM DAPA, 50 μM PCPS, and F2P1 (triangles), F2P2 (circles), F2P3 (squares) or F2P8 (diamonds) at varying concentration are plotted with respect to inhibitor concentrations. Reactions were started by addition of 20 nM FXa. (B) Prothrombin activation was carried out as above, but in the presence of 5 nM FVa and F2P2 (circles), or F2P3 (squares) at varying concentrations. Reactions were initiated by addition of 0.1 nM FXa. Non-linear regression analysis was carried out to determine the IC50 and the apparent Ki was calculated using the Cheng-Prusoff equation.
