prothrombinase [pro-throm´bin-ās] 1. thromboplastin.2. the complex formed between activated factor x and calcium, phospholipid, and modified factor v; it can cleave and activate prothrombin to thrombin in the pathway of coagulation" >common pathway of coagulation. The term is sometimes used to refer specifically to the active enzyme center of the complex, which is activated factor x.fac·tor Xin the clotting of blood, also known as: Stuart factor, Stuart-Prower factor, prothrombase, and prothrombinase. Its active form, factor Xa (EC 3.4.21.6), is formed from factor X by limited proteolysis and assists in the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin. A deficiency of factor X will lead to impaired blood coagulation. Synonym(s): prothrombinase, Stuart factor, Stuart-Prower factorprothrombinase (prō-thrŏm′bə-nās′, -nāz′)n. An enzyme complex that catalyzes the hydrolysis of prothrombin to thrombin.fac·tor X (fak'tŏr) A plasma coagulation factor that assists in the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin. Deficiency impairs blood coagulation.
