Biochem/physiol Actions
Hirudin fragment that binds to the regulatory exosite I on thrombin and the regulatory proexosite I on prothrombin. The interaction with thrombin prevents the thrombin-induced activation of clotting factor V. The interaction with prothrombin inhibits the formation of thrombin by factor Xa in the presence of factor Va.
