Mouse Vitamin K-Dependent Protein S (PROS1) ELISA Kit
Background/Introduction: PROS1 encodes a vitamin K-dependent protein with key roles in multiple biological processes including coagulation, apoptosis and vasculogenesis. Protein S (alpha) undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature protein which is secreted into the plasma. Mice lacking the encoded protein die in utero from a fulminant coagulopathy and associated hemorrhages.

The encoded protein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature protein which is secreted into the plasma. Mice lacking the encoded protein die in utero from a fulminant coagulopathy and associated hemorrhages. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]
Uniprot Description
PROS1: Anticoagulant plasma protein; it is a cofactor to activated protein C in the degradation of coagulation factors Va and VIIIa. It helps to prevent coagulation and stimulating fibrinolysis. Defects in PROS1 are the cause of thrombophilia due to protein S deficiency, autosomal dominant (THPH5). A hemostatic disorder characterized by impaired regulation of blood coagulation and a tendency to recurrent venous thrombosis. However, many adults with heterozygous disease may be asymptomatic. Based on the plasma levels of total and free PROS1 antigen as well as the serine protease-activated protein C cofactor activity, three types of PROS1D have been described: type I, characterized by reduced total and free PROS1 antigen levels together with reduced anticoagulant activity; type III, in which only free PROS1 antigen and PROS1 activity levels are reduced; and the rare type II which is characterized by normal concentrations of both total and free PROS1 antigen, but low cofactor activity. Defects in PROS1 are the cause of thrombophilia due to protein S deficiency, autosomal recessive (THPH6). A very rare and severe hematologic disorder resulting in thrombosis and secondary hemorrhage usually beginning in early infancy. Some affected individuals develop neonatal purpura fulminans, multifocal thrombosis, or intracranial hemorrhage.

Product Notes
The Mouse PROS1 pros1 (Catalog #AAA9717255) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9717255 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse PROS1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Vitamin K-Dependent Protein S (PROS1), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
