Reaction Characteristics of Antiprothrombin Antibody on the Activation of Prothrombin (Sheep)[*]
Publication History
Publication Date:
29 June 2018 (online)
Summary
1. Prothrombin was purified by a series of steps and subsequently on DEAE-Cellu- lose chromatography and specific antibody to pure prothrombin was prepared.
2. The effect of Anti-prothrombin antibody was tested on the activation of prothrombin. The generated thrombin was assayed for its clotting function as well as for esterase activity on TAMe (Tosyl-Arginine-Methyl ester) as substrate.
3. Anti-prothrombin antibody inhibits the clotting function of generated thrombin completely but its esterase function is only partially affected.
* Preliminary work was presented at the XIII Congress of the International Society of Hematology, Munich, 1970.
