Résumé

La préthrombine-E a seulement une activité estérasique et, après la perte d'un lien Arg-Ile, elle provoque la formation dlune thrombine protéolytique composée de 2 chaines (A et B) liées dans une maille bisulfide. A la suite d'un procédé de décomposition autolytique, la chaîne B se détache et on obtient la thrombine estérasique formée par 2 chaînes A et B2. On a introduit de nouvelles méthodes pour l'isolement de la thrombine-E. L'antithrombine et le DFP neutralisent effectivement les 3 enzymes.
