| UniProt functional annotation for P18965 | |||
| UniProt code: P18965. |
| Organism: | Daboia siamensis (Eastern Russel's viper) (Daboia russelii siamensis). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Lepidosauria; Squamata; Bifurcata; Unidentata; Episquamata; Toxicofera; Serpentes; Colubroidea; Viperidae; Viperinae; Daboia. | |
| Function: | Venom serine protease that selectively activates factor V (F5) in a calcium-independent manner. It cleaves the Arg(1545)- Ser(1546) linkage in the human factor V molecule. Induces the coagulation of mammalian plasma. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:3053712}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=Fully activates human clotting factor V by a single cleavage at the 1545-Trp-Tyr-Leu-Arg-|-Ser-Asn-Asn-Gly-1552 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- NHPhNO(2).; EC=3.4.21.95; | |
| Subunit: | Monomer. | |
| Subcellular location: | Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:3053712}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Expressed by the venom gland. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Miscellaneous: | There are three isoproteins of RVV-V, designated RVV-V alpha, V-beta, and V-gamma. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Snake venom subfamily. {ECO:0000305}. | |
