Biological function summary
Annexin V acts as a regulator of membrane-related events. It plays a part in the coagulation cascade by inhibiting procoagulant phospholipids. Additionally Annexin V is not typically involved in any large protein complex but binds to cell membranes as a monomer. During apoptosis it localizes to cell membranes where it marks cells for phagocytosis. This function highlights its role in maintaining homeostasis by clearing out apoptotic cells efficiently.
Pathways
Annexin V engages in apoptosis and blood coagulation pathways significantly. In apoptosis Annexin V acts downstream where it helps in identifying cells undergoing programmed cell death by binding to externalized phosphatidylserine. This interaction relates to the protein Bcl-2 which regulates apoptosis upstream. In the blood coagulation pathway Annexin V regulates by forming a shield over phospholipid surfaces preventing the assembly of the prothrombinase complex affecting proteins such as Factor Xa and thrombin.
