Ett fibrinstabiliserande plasmaenzym (i gruppen transglutaminaser) som aktiveras av trombin och kalcium till att bilda faktor XIIIa. Det har en viktig, stabiliserande roll vid bildandet av den fibrinpolymer (blodkrusta) som utgör ändledet i hela koagulationsprocessen.
A fibrin-stabilizing plasma enzyme (TRANSGLUTAMINASES) that is activated by THROMBIN and CALCIUM to form FACTOR XIIIA. It is important for stabilizing the formation of the fibrin polymer (clot) which culminates the coagulation cascade.
