Which anticoagulant protein interacts with heparin resulting in conformational changes and the formation of a complex between itself and factors IIa, Xa, and heparin?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Antithrombin is the anticoagulant protein that interacts with heparin resulting in conformational changes and the formation of a complex between itself and factors IIa and Xa. This complex inactivates factors IIa and Xa, leading to the inhibition of the coagulation cascade.
