How the Linker Connecting the Two Kringles Influences Activation and Conformational Plasticity of Prothrombin

A flexible linker (Lnk2) composed of 26 amino acids connects kringle-1 to kringle-2 in the coagulation factor prothrombin. Recent studies point to Lnk2 as a key determinant of the structure and function of this zymogen. Using a combination of mutagenesis, structural biology, and single molecule spec...
