Factor XII also known as FXII or Hageman factor is a serine protease and a coagulation factor that plays an important role in initiating the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. It has a molecular mass of approximately 80 kDa. The liver primarily synthesizes this protein and it circulates in the blood plasma as an inactive precursor. When activated to Factor XIIa it cleaves and activates other coagulation factors such as Factor XI to propagate the coagulation cascade that helps in blood clot formation.
Biological function summary

This protein helps control blood coagulation processes as part of a larger network of interacting proteins that includes contact activation factors. Factor XII activates not only the coagulation cascade but also pathways involved in fibrinolysis inflammation and bradykinin formation. It triggers the kallikrein-kinin system and leads to the generation of bradykinin a peptide known to induce vascular permeability and inflammation.

Pathways

The involvement of Factor XII spans the intrinsic coagulation pathway and the kallikrein-kinin system. It interacts with several other coagulation factors such as Factor XI and prekallikrein to advance the clotting process. The protein initiates the intrinsic blood coagulation pathway by converting Factor XI to Factor XIa in the presence of negatively charged surfaces. It links to the fibrinolytic pathway and can indirectly activate plasminogen through interactions that generate plasmin.

Factor XII deficiency leads to increased risk of thrombosis even though such deficiency generally shows no major bleeding symptoms. The target links to hereditary angioedema where dysregulation in the kallikrein-kinin system involves premature bradykinin activity. Factor XII associates with C1-inhibitor a protein playing a regulatory role in preventing excessive bradykinin production which can manifest in clinical symptoms seen in hereditary angioedema patients.

General info

Function

Factor XII is a serum glycoprotein that participates in the initiation of blood coagulation, fibrinolysis, and the generation of bradykinin and angiotensin. Prekallikrein is cleaved by factor XII to form kallikrein, which then cleaves factor XII first to alpha-factor XIIa and then trypsin cleaves it to beta-factor XIIa. Alpha-factor XIIa activates factor XI to factor XIa (PubMed : 2019570, PubMed : 21304106, PubMed : 8427954).

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase S1 family.

Post-translational modifications

Factor XII is activated by kallikrein in alpha-factor XIIa, which is further converted by trypsin into beta-factor XIIa. Alpha-factor XIIa is composed of an NH2-terminal heavy chain, called coagulation factor XIIa heavy chain, and a COOH-terminal light chain, called coagulation factor XIIa light chain, connected by a disulfide bond. Beta-factor XIIa is composed of 2 chains linked by a disulfide bond, an N-terminal nonapeptide, called beta-factor XIIa part 1, and coagulation factor XIIa light chain, also known in this context as beta-factor XIIa part 2.. O- and N-glycosylated. The O-linked polysaccharides were not identified, but are probably the mucin type linked to GalNAc.
