Residues R1075, D1090, R1095, and C1130 Are Critical in ADAMTS13 TSP8-Spacer Interaction Predicted by Molecular Dynamics Simulation
ADAMTS13 (A Disintegrin and Metalloprotease with Thrombospondin type 1 repeats, member 13) cleaves von Willebrand Factor (VWF) multimers to limit the prothrombotic function of VWF. The deficiency of ADAMTS13 causes a lethal thrombotic microvascular disease, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP)....
