title: [Inactivation of factor X by plasmin].
abstract: Plasmin does not activate factor X into the enzyme--factor Xa. On the contrary, the enzyme inactivates factor X, rendering it incapable of conversion into factor Xa during incubation in 25% sodium citrate. After proteolysis by plasmin the prothrombin preparations contaminated with factor X lose their ability to generate thrombin. This ability is partially restored by an addition of factor X.
