Target Information

This gene encodes the coagulation factor XIII A subunit. Coagulation factor XIII is the last zymogen to become activated in the blood coagulation cascade. Plasma factor XIII is a heterotetramer composed of 2 A subunits and 2 B subunits. The A subunits have catalytic function, and the B subunits may serve as plasma carrier molecules. Platelet factor XIII contains only 2 A subunits, identical to those of plasma origin. Upon thrombin cleavage and in the presence of calcium ions, plasma factor XIII dissociates its B subunits to yield the active enzyme, factor XIIIa. This enzyme acts as a transglutaminase, catalyzing gamma-glutamyl-epsilon-lysine crosslinking between fibrin molecules, stabilizing the fibrin clot. It also crosslinks alpha-2-plasmin inhibitor or fibronectin to fibrin alpha chains. Factor XIII deficiency can cause bleeding disorders, defective wound healing, and habitual abortion.
