Abstract

The present invention relates to the design, production and 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 promote activation of thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI). These analogs are useful in, for example, antithrombotic therapy.
