Description
Human Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor 2 (TFPI2) has a N-terminal acidic region, three Kunita domains separated with by two linker regions, and a C-terminal basic region. TFPI2 has the function of regulating plasmin-mediated matrix remodeling, inhibits trypsin, plasmin, factor Vlla/tissue factor and weakly factor Xa. TFPI2 has no effect on thrombin. TFPI2 may contribute to tumor progression in many cancers; in these cancers, the expression of TFPI2 can be down-regulated
