Product Description

Bovine prothrombin, also known as Factor II, is a protein found in the blood of cattle. It belongs to the family of serine proteases, which play a critical role in the blood clotting cascade. Bovine prothrombin has a molecular weight of approximately 72 kDa and is synthesized in the liver. As a key component of the coagulation system, it undergoes enzymatic cleavage to form thrombin, an essential enzyme involved in the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin during blood clot formation. Understanding the structure and function of bovine prothrombin contributes to the broader knowledge of hemostasis and thrombosis in both bovine and human systems.
