Coagulation factor complex molecule C014 / 0584
Coagulation factor complex molecule. Molecular model showing a blood clotting factor VIIa-tissue factor complex molecule (blue and white ribbons) with a tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI, spheres top right) molecule bound. Tissue factor, also known as factor III, is found on the outside of blood vessels. When the vessel is injured it comes into contact with factor VII (FVII) circulating in the blood stream. They bind together, activating FVII as apart of the coagulation cascade, the physiological process that leads to blood clotting in the case of injury. Molecules further down the cascade activate TFPI, suppressing the cascade

EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases the intricate molecular structure of Coagulation factor complex molecule C014 / 0584. The image depicts a blood clotting factor VIIa-tissue factor complex molecule, represented by blue and white ribbons, with a tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) molecule bound to it in spherical form at the top right corner. Tissue factor, also known as factor III, is typically found on the exterior of blood vessels. In cases of injury or damage to the vessel, it comes into contact with circulating factor VII (FVII), leading to their binding together and activating FVII as part of the coagulation cascade. This physiological process ultimately results in blood clotting. As we delve deeper into this cascade, molecules further down activate TFPI, which plays a crucial role in suppressing the entire process through negative feedback mechanisms. RAMON ANDRADE's artwork beautifully captures these essential biological components against a clean white background. The molecular model highlights various aspects such as enzyme activity, secondary structure formation, and inhibition processes within this complex system. This stunning visual representation not only provides insight into the fascinating world of biochemistry but also serves as a reminder of our body's incredible ability to respond and heal itself when faced with injuries or trauma.
