TFPI Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 299 amino acids (29-304) and having a molecular mass of 34.3kDa. TFPI is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. TFPI is a protease inhibitor which controls the tissue factor (TF)-dependent pathway of blood coagulation. The coagulation process starts with the creation of a factor VIIa-TF complex, that proteolytically triggers additional proteases (factors IX and X) and eventually results in a fibrin clot. TFPI inhibits the activated factor X and VIIa-TF proteases in an autoregulatory loop. TFPI is glycosylated and predominantly located in the vascular endothelium and plasma in both free forms and complexed with plasma lipoproteins. A number of alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have are known, however the full-length nature of several of these variants were not yet established.
