III; RT "Amino acid sequence determination of ancrod, the thrombin-like alpha- RT fibrinogenase from the venom of Akistrodon rhodostoma."; RL FEBS Lett. 297:297-301(1992). CC -!- FUNCTION: Thrombin-like snake venom serine protease that acts as an CC anticoagulant. It cleaves fibrinogen (FGA) to split off the A- CC fibrinopeptides (A, AY and AP), but not the B-fibrinopeptide. The CC resulting fibrin polymers are imperfectly formed and much smaller in CC size (1 to 2 um long) than the fibrin polymers produced by the action CC of thrombin. These ancrod-induced microthrombi are friable, unstable, CC urea-soluble and have significantly degraded alpha chains. They do not CC cross-link to form thrombi. They are markedly susceptible to digestion CC by plasmin and are rapidly removed from circulation by either CC reticuloendothelial phagocytosis or normal fibrinolysis, or both. CC Anticoagulation through the removal of fibrinogen from the blood is CC rapid, occurring within hours following its administration. It does not CC activate plasminogen and does not degrade preformed, fully cross-linked CC thrombin fibrin. It also reduces the level of plasminogen activator CC inhibitor (PAI) and may stimulate the release of tissue plasminogen CC activator (PLAT) from the endothelium. The profibrinolytic effect of CC these 2 actions appears to be limited to local microthrombus CC degradation. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: CC Reaction=Selective cleavage of Arg-|-Xaa bond in fibrinogen, to form CC fibrin, and release fibrinopeptide A. The specificity of further CC degradation of fibrinogen varies with species origin of the enzyme.; CC EC=3.4.21.74; CC -!- SUBUNIT: Monomer. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted. CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by the venom gland. CC -!- PHARMACEUTICAL: Used for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. Until CC 2002 was available under the brand name Arvin or Arwin (Knoll). Is CC actually available under the brand name Viprinex (Abbott). CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Snake venom subfamily. CC {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00274}.
