A novel TAFIa assay and its use to measure TAFI activation in vivo in primate models and the determination of the kinetics of TAFIa-catalyzed release of bound plasminogen from soluble fibrin degradation products
Thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI), also called procarboxypeptidase U (proCPU), is a plasma zymogen that can be activated by thrombin, the thrombin-thrombomodulin complex, or plasmin. The activated form of TAFI (TAFIa, CPU) removes C-terminal lysine residues of plasmin-modified fibr...
