HMWK
quininógeno de alto peso molecular
Scope note: Proteína plasmática de 110 kD de peso molecular, que existe normalmente en el plasma en un complejo 1:1 con PRECALICREINA. El HMWK es fraccionado por calicreína plasmática produciendo BRADIQUININA. El complejo es un cofactor en la activación del factor de coagulación XII. El producto de esta reacción, XIIa, a su vez activa la precalicreína a CALICREINA. (Stedman, 26th ed)

Scope note: A plasma protein, molecular weight of 110 kD, that normally exists in plasma in a 1:1 complex with PREKALLIKREIN. HMWK is split by plasma kallikrein to produce BRADYKININ. The complex is a cofactor in the activation of coagulation factor XII. The product of this reaction, XIIa, in turn activates prekallikrein to KALLIKREINS. (From Stedman, 26th ed)
