Abstract

This review deals with thrombin peculiarities responsible for its highly selective and effective action in blood clotting system Role of enzyme additional binding-recognition exosites in interaction with fibrinogen is analyzed. As a result of thrombin-fibrinogen recognition complex formation is supposed some conformational changes to arise that couple exosite with active centre and accelerate the catalytic process.
