Essentials The C‐terminus of tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPIα) binds to the B‐domain of factor V (FV). The functional consequences of this interaction were investigated in plasma and model systems. The TFPIα C‐terminus inhibited thrombin generation in plasma, but not in the presence of FVa. The TFPIα C‐terminus inhibited FV activation by preventing cleavage at Arg1545.
