The 3 function of F5/8 type A of the protein

S.NOUniprot IDProtein Name Sequence LengthF5/8 type A Repeated RegionFunction
1 P00451 Coagulation factor VIII 2351"Factor VIII, along with calcium and phospholipid, acts as a cofactor for F9/factor IXa when it converts F10/factor X to the activated form, factor Xa".
2 P00450 Ceruloplasmin 1065"Ceruloplasmin is a blue, copper-binding (6-7 atoms per molecule) glycoprotein.
It has ferroxidase activity oxidizing Fe(2+) to Fe(3+) without releasing radical oxygen species.
It is involved in iron transport across the cell membrane.
Provides Cu(2+) ions for the ascorbate-mediated deaminase degradation of the heparan sulfate chains of GPC1.
May also play a role in fetal lung development or pulmonary antioxidant defense (By similarity)".
3 P12259 Coagulation factor V 2224Central regulator of hemostasis.
It serves as a critical cofactor for the prothrombinase activity of factor Xa that results in the activation of prothrombin to thrombin.
