Using recombinant ยฎbronectin proteins containing the V region and two point mutations in the high-afยฎnity heparin-binding domain, we previously showed that these domains modulate tumor cell invasion as well as proteinase expression and apoptosis in human ยฎbroblasts. Structurally, the wildtype counte

In vitro experiments indicate that components of the host present in body fluids may prevent the attachment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) to target cells. Fibronectin (Fn), a dimeric 440-kDa extracellular matrix adhesion protein, is secreted by mesenchymal cells and assembled into i
An objective of this research is to verify the mechanism of anticoagulant activity of surface-immobilized heparin in the presence of plasma proteins. The competition and binding interaction between immobilized heparin and antithrombin I11 (ATIII)/thrombin have been described in vituo. However, the s
## Abstract The serine proteinase inhibitor antithrombin III (ATIII) is a key regulatory protein of intrinsic blood coagulation. ATIII attains its full biological activity only upon binding polysulfated oligosaccharides, such as heparin. A series of synthetic peptides have been prepared based on th
