TAFI

Le TAFI (de l'anglais thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor) est une enzyme inhibitrice de la liaison plasminogène-fibrine dans la fibrinolyse[1], inhibant cette dernière. Son gène est le CPB2 situé sur le chromosome 13 humain.

Il est synthétisé essentiellement dans le foie[2].

Il retire la lysine ou l'arginine au bout de l'extrémité C-terminale de plusieurs protéines, dont la plasmine, la bradykinine, l'ostéopontine, permettant de moduler l'inflammation[3].

Le polymorphisme génétique du gène augmente le risque de maladie thromboembolique[4].
