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.

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.
