Human Factor XI is a two-chain glycoprotein prepared from fresh human plasma using several chromatographic steps. The two chains are identical disulfide bonded polypeptides with molecular weights of 80,000 daltons. Factor XI is activated to Factor XIa by

This gene encodes coagulation factor XI of the blood coagulation cascade. This protein is present in plasma as a zymogen, which is a unique plasma coagulation enzyme because it exists as a homodimer consisting of two identical polypeptide chains linked by disulfide bonds. During activation of the plasma factor XI, an internal peptide bond is cleaved by factor XIIa (or XII) in each of the two chains, resulting in activated factor XIa, a serine protease composed of two heavy and two light chains held together by disulfide bonds. This activated plasma factor XI triggers the middle phase of the intrisic pathway of blood coagulation by activating factor IX. Defects in this factor lead to Rosenthal syndrome, a blood coagulation abnormality. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

F11: Factor XI triggers the middle phase of the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation by activating factor IX. Defects in F11 are the cause of factor XI deficiency (FA11D); also known as plasma thromboplastin antecedent deficiency or Rosenthal syndrome. It is a hemorrhagic disease characterized by reduced levels and activity of factor XI resulting in moderate bleeding symptoms, usually occurring after trauma or surgery. Patients usually do not present spontaneous bleeding but women can present with menorrhagia. Hemorrhages are usually moderate. Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Plasma kallikrein subfamily. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
