'''Factor XI''' or '''plasma thromboplastin antecedent''' is one of the [[enzyme]]s of the [[coagulation|coagulation cascade]]. Like many other coagulation factors, it is a [[serine protease]].
Factor XIa activates factor IX by selectively cleaving [[arginine|arg]]-[[alanine|ala]] and [[arginine|arg]]-[[valine|val]] [[peptide bond]]s. Factor IXa, in turn, activates [[factor X]].
 
Inhibitors of factor XIa include [[protein Z-dependent protease inhibitor]] (ZPI, a member of the [[serine protease inhibitor]]/serpin class of proteins), which is independent of [[protein Z]] (its action on factor X, however, is protein Z-dependent, hence its name).


==Physiology==
== Structure ==
Factor XI (FXI) is produced by the [[liver]] and circulates as a homo-dimer in its inactive form. The plasma half-life of FXI is approximately 52 hours. The zymogen factor is activated into ''factor XIa'' by [[factor XII]]a (FXIIa), [[thrombin]], and it is also [[autocatalytic]], and FXI is a member of the "contact pathway" due to activation by FXIIa (with includes [[high molecular weight kininogen|HMWK]], [[prekallikrein]], [[factor XII]], factor XI and [[factor IX]]).


Factor XIa activates factor IX by selectively cleaving [[arginine|arg]]-[[alanine|ala]] and [[arginine|arg]]-[[valine|val]] [[peptide bond]]s. Factor IXa, in turn, activates [[factor X]].
Although synthesized as a single polypeptide chain, FXI circulates as a homodimer. Every chain has a relative molecular mass of approximately 80000. Typical plasma concentrations of FXI are 5 μg/mL, corresponding to a plasma concentration (of FXI dimers) of approximately 30 nM.
The FXI gene is 23kb in length, has 15 exons, and is found on chromosome 4q32-35.<ref name="pmid2827746"/><ref name="pmid2612218"/>
 
Factor XI consists of four [[PAN domain|apple domain]]s, that create a disk-like platform around the base of a fifth, catalytic [[serine protease]] domain.
One contains a binding site for [[thrombin]], another for [[high molecular weight kininogen]], a third one for [[factor IX]], [[heparin]] and [[glycoprotein Ib]] and the fourth is implicated in forming the factor XI homodimer, including a [[cysteine]] residue that creates a [[disulfide bond]].
 
In the homodimer, the apple domains create two disk-like platforms connected together at an angle, with the catalytic domains sticking out at each side of the dimer.


Inhibitors of factor XIa include [[protein Z-dependent protease inhibitor]] (ZPI, a member of the [[serine protease inhibitor]]/serpin class of proteins), which is independent of [[protein Z]] (its action on factor X, however, is protein Z-dependent, hence its name).
Activation by thrombin or [[factor XII]]a is achieved by cleavage of Arg369-Ile370 peptide bonds on both subunits of the dimer. This results in a partial detachment of the catalytic domain from the disk-like apple domains, still linked to the fourth domain with a disulfide bond, but now farther from the third domain.
This is thought that this exposes the factor IX binding site of the third apple domain, allowing factor XI's protease activity on it.

== Role in disease ==
Although synthesized as a single polypeptide chain, FXI circulates as a homo-dimer. Every chain has a relative molecular mass of approximately 80000. Typical plasma concentrations of FXI are 5 mg/l, corresponding to a plasma concentration (of FXI dimers) of approximately 30nM.

==Role in disease==
Deficiency of factor XI causes the rare [[hemophilia C]]; this mainly occurs in [[Ashkenazi]] [[Jew]]s and is believed to affect approximately 8% of that population. Less commonly, hemophilia C can be found in Jews of Iraqi ancestry and in Israeli Arabs. The condition has been described in other populations at around 1% of cases. It is an [[autosomal recessive]] disorder. There is little spontaneous bleeding, but surgical procedures may cause excessive blood loss, and prophylaxis is required.<ref name="pmid8800510">{{cite journal | vauthors = Bolton-Maggs PH | title = Factor XI deficiency | journal = Baillière's Clinical Haematology | volume = 9 | issue = 2 | pages = 355–68 | date = Jun 1996 | pmid = 8800510 | doi = 10.1016/S0950-3536(96)80068-0 }}</ref>
Deficiency of factor XI causes the rare [[Haemophilia C]]; this mainly occurs in Ashkenazi Jews and is believed to affect approximately 8% of that population, of both sexes. The condition has been described in other populations at around 1% of cases. It is an [[autosomal recessive]] disorder. There is little spontaneous bleeding, but surgical procedures may cause excessive blood loss, and prophylaxis is required.


Low levels of factor XI also occur in many other disease states, including [[Noonan syndrome]].

High levels of factor XI have been implicated in [[thrombosis]], although it is uncertain what determines these levels and how serious the procoagulant state is.

Factor XI or plasma thromboplastin antecedent is the zymogen form of factor XIa, one of the enzymes of the coagulation cascade. Like many other coagulation factors, it is a serine protease. In humans, Factor XI is encoded by the F11 gene.[1][2][3][4]

Function

Factor XI (FXI) is produced by the liver and circulates as a homo-dimer in its inactive form.[5] The plasma half-life of FXI is approximately 52 hours. The zymogen factor is activated into factor XIa by factor XIIa (FXIIa), thrombin, and FXIa itself; due to its activation by FXIIa, FXI is a member of the "contact pathway" (which includes HMWK, prekallikrein, factor XII, factor XI, and factor IX).[6]

Factor XIa activates factor IX by selectively cleaving arg-ala and arg-val peptide bonds. Factor IXa, in turn, activates factor X.

Inhibitors of factor XIa include protein Z-dependent protease inhibitor (ZPI, a member of the serine protease inhibitor/serpin class of proteins), which is independent of protein Z (its action on factor X, however, is protein Z-dependent, hence its name).

Structure

Although synthesized as a single polypeptide chain, FXI circulates as a homodimer. Every chain has a relative molecular mass of approximately 80000. Typical plasma concentrations of FXI are 5 μg/mL, corresponding to a plasma concentration (of FXI dimers) of approximately 30 nM. The FXI gene is 23kb in length, has 15 exons, and is found on chromosome 4q32-35.[2][3]

Factor XI consists of four apple domains, that create a disk-like platform around the base of a fifth, catalytic serine protease domain. One contains a binding site for thrombin, another for high molecular weight kininogen, a third one for factor IX, heparin and glycoprotein Ib and the fourth is implicated in forming the factor XI homodimer, including a cysteine residue that creates a disulfide bond.

In the homodimer, the apple domains create two disk-like platforms connected together at an angle, with the catalytic domains sticking out at each side of the dimer.

Activation by thrombin or factor XIIa is achieved by cleavage of Arg369-Ile370 peptide bonds on both subunits of the dimer. This results in a partial detachment of the catalytic domain from the disk-like apple domains, still linked to the fourth domain with a disulfide bond, but now farther from the third domain. This is thought that this exposes the factor IX binding site of the third apple domain, allowing factor XI's protease activity on it. [7]

Role in disease

Deficiency of factor XI causes the rare hemophilia C; this mainly occurs in Ashkenazi Jews and is believed to affect approximately 8% of that population. Less commonly, hemophilia C can be found in Jews of Iraqi ancestry and in Israeli Arabs. The condition has been described in other populations at around 1% of cases. It is an autosomal recessive disorder. There is little spontaneous bleeding, but surgical procedures may cause excessive blood loss, and prophylaxis is required.[8]

Low levels of factor XI also occur in many other disease states, including Noonan syndrome.

High levels of factor XI have been implicated in thrombosis, although it is uncertain what determines these levels and how serious the procoagulant state is.
