Abstract
The present invention relates to the use of analogs of thrombomodulin ('TM') that have the ability to enhance the thrombin-mediated activation of protein C but which have a significantly reduced ability to inhibit the direct procoagulant activities of thrombin, such as, for example, thrombin-mediated conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin. These analogs are useful in, for example, antithrombotic therapy. Novel proteins, nucleic acid gene sequences, pharmaceuticals and methods of inhibiting thrombotic activity are disclosed. Included are methods for increasing the circulating half life of the proteins.
