Factor XII (FXII) is a plasma serine protease that initiates the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation upon contact with anionic substances, such as the sulfated glycolipid sulfatide. Annexins (ANXs) have been implicated in the regulation of the blood coagulation reaction by binding to anionic surfaces composed of phospholipids and sulfated glycoconjugates, but their physiological importance is only partially understood.
