Summary Introduction
Â
To determine:
Â
Pathway where activation of factor X occurs.
Â
Introduction:
Â
Stuart–Prower or Factor X is an enzyme that helps in coagulation cascade. It requires vitamin K for synthesis and its synthesis happens in the liver. Hydrolysis leads to the activation of Factor X into factor XA by both factor IX and factor VII along with its cofactor. Hence it is the member of the final common pathway. It plays a role in blood coagulation. Bleeding of the gums, easy bruising bleeding under the skin are some of the health troubles caused by the deficiency of Factor X.
