Biological function summary
Protein C serves as an important regulator in the coagulation pathway. Upon activation it joins with a cofactor known as Protein S to form the activated Protein C complex which inactivates clotting factors Va and VIIIa. This inactivation leads to a reduction in thrombin formation thereby preventing excessive blood clotting. The activated C complex works efficiently on phospholipid surfaces such as those found on cellular membranes.
Pathways
Protein C activation is an important step in the anticoagulant pathway and works to balance the procoagulant actions of other factors. Protein C functions in tandem with proteins such as thrombin which transforms it into its active form when bound to thrombomodulin on the endothelial cell surface. The activated Protein C pathway ensures proper blood flow by preventing unchecked clot propagation and is intricately tied with pathways involving thrombin and factors Va and VIIIa.
