KEGG   ENZYME: 3.4.21.95
Entry
EC 3.4.21.95                Enzyme                                 
Name
snake venom factor V activator
Class
Hydrolases;
Acting on peptide bonds (peptidases);
Serine endopeptidases
Reaction(IUBMB)
Fully activates human clotting factor V by a single cleavage at the Trp-Tyr-Leu-Arg1545!Ser-Asn-Asn-Gly bond. Cattle, but not rabbit, factor V is cleaved, and no other proteins of the clotting system are attacked. Esterase activity is observed on Bz-Arg-OEt and Tos-Arg-OMe, and amidase activity on Phe-pipecolyl-Arg-NHPhNO2
Comment
Known from venom of Vipera russelli. Inhibited by di-isopropyl fluorophosphate, unlike the metallopeptidase russellysin (EC 3.4.24.58) that is specific for factor X [1]. In peptidase family S1 (trypsin family) [2].
