Factor X Antibody (AMX-9050) is a rat monoclonal IgG antibody that detects Coagulation Factor X in mouse samples by western blotting (WB). Factor X, also known as Stuart Prower factor, plays a crucial role in the hemostatic process following tissue injury, as Coagulation Factor X is a key component of the blood coagulation cascade that leads to the formation of fibrin clots and platelet aggregation. This vitamin K-dependent serine protease is synthesized in the liver and circulates as an inactive precursor until activated through cleavage by either Factor IX A or Factor VII A, resulting in the formation of active Factor X A. Factor X A forms a complex with Factor V A and calcium ions on the surface of platelets or endothelial cells, which is essential for converting prothrombin to thrombin, a critical step in the coagulation process. Deficiencies in Factor X due to mutations at the Factor X locus can lead to serious bleeding disorders, highlighting the significance of Factor X in maintaining hemostatic balance. Anti-Factor X antibody (AMX-9050) serves as an invaluable tool for researchers studying coagulation pathways and related disorders, providing insights into the mechanisms of hemostasis and potential therapeutic targets.
