[Auszug] A library of 62 thrombin mutants11, in which the solvent-exposed charged and polar amino acids were substituted with alanine, was screened for mutants that were defective in fibrin-ogen clotting yet retained their ability to activate protein C in the presence of thrombomodulin. One mutation, E229A, ...
