WHAT DOES THROMBIN MEAN IN ENGLISH?

thrombin

Thrombin

Thrombin is a serine protease that in humans is encoded by the F2 gene. Prothrombin is proteolytically cleaved to form thrombin in the coagulation cascade, which ultimately results in the reduction of blood loss. Thrombin in turn acts as a serine protease that converts soluble fibrinogen into insoluble strands of fibrin, as well as catalyzing many other coagulation-related reactions.

Definition of thrombin in the English dictionary

The definition of thrombin in the dictionary is an enzyme that acts on fibrinogen in blood causing it to clot.
