Coagulation factor complex molecule C014 / 0409
Coagulation factor complex molecule. Molecular model showing the interaction between coagulation factor VIII (FVIII, pink, blue and yellow), factor IXa (FIXa, cream and grey) and the phospholipid membrane (yellow and grey) of a blood platelet. The secondary structures (ribbons) of the molecules are shown, with the primary structure (atoms, spheres) of the active site of the factor IXa enzyme shown. These proteins are involved in the coagulation cascade, the physiological process that leads to blood clotting in the case of an injury. This complex of FVIII and FIXa activates factor X in both the extrinsic and intrinsic activation pathways

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of the coagulation factor complex molecule C014 / 0409. The image beautifully depicts the interaction between coagulation factor VIII (FVIII), factor IXa (FIXa), and the phospholipid membrane found in blood platelets. The vibrant colors highlight FVIII in pink, blue, and yellow, while FIXa is represented by cream and grey tones. The yellow and grey hues symbolize the phospholipid membrane that surrounds these proteins within a blood platelet. The ribbons displayed represent secondary structures of these molecules, giving us a visual insight into their composition. Additionally, we can observe the primary structure of the active site of the factor IXa enzyme through atoms depicted as spheres. These proteins play a crucial role in our body's coagulation cascade – a physiological process responsible for blood clotting when an injury occurs. Specifically, this complex activates factor X through both extrinsic and intrinsic activation pathways. RAMON ANDRADE 3DCIENCIA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY has expertly captured this scientific marvel with meticulous detail and precision. This artwork provides valuable insights into biochemistry, biology, and our bloodstream's intricate workings. It is important to note that this print does not pertain to any specific company or commercial use; instead, it serves as an educational tool for those interested in understanding coagulation factors on a molecular level.
