Factor V Binding to Multimerin 1: Modulation by Factor V Activation and Binding Sites in the Factor V C1 and C2 Domains.

Abstract Platelets and endothelial cells store the polymeric factor V(a) binding protein, multimerin 1 (MMRN1), for release upon agonist stimulation. In human megakaryocytes, factor V binding to MMRN1 follows plasma factor V endocytosis, resulting in stored complexes of MMRN1 and factor V in platelet α-granules. The C2 domain of the factor V light chain contains a MMRN1 binding site; however, the affinity and stoichiometry of …
