Fig. 5. Time-course of activation of FXIII by thrombin in the presence of polymerizing fibrin. / The activation of 3.1 μmol/L purified FXIII 34Val (squares) and FXIII 34Leu (circles) by 0.2 U/mL human α-thrombin with the addition of 2.7 μmol/L fibrinogen was analyzed by HPLC. Diamonds represent fibrinopeptide A and triangles fibrinopeptide B. Release of the peptides was expressed as the ratio between the molar quantity of the peptides ([peptide]) and molar quantity of the peptides at full activation ([peptide]f). Results shown are mean values ± SD of 4 experiments. The inset shows a typical chromatogram with 4 defined peaks for fibrinopeptide A, fibrinopeptide B, FXIII 34Val activation peptide, and FXIII 34Leu activation peptide.
