Hirullin

* Please kindly note that our products are not to be used for therapeutic purposes and cannot be sold to patients.

Hirullin is originally isolated from the leech Hirudinaria manillensis. It is a hirudin-based fibrinogen recognition peptide inhibitor, which binds efficiently to thrombin (IC50= 4.2 µM, in bovine).

1.The C-terminal binding domain of hirullin P18. Antithrombin activity and comparison to hirudin peptides.
Krstenansky JL1, Owen TJ, Yates MT, Mao SJ. FEBS Lett. 1990 Sep 3;269(2):425-9.
Hirullin P18 is a 61-amino acid hirudin-related protein having potent antithrombin activity. Similar to hirudin, it contains a highly acidic C-terminus, but has a significantly different sequence from any other known hirudin variant. The present study demonstrates that the C-terminal fragment acetyl-hirullin P18(41-62) [corrected] possesses an antithrombin potency similar to that of acetyl-desulfatohirudin(45-65). Additionally, like the hirudin fragment analog, it inhibits fibrin-clot formation by binding to a non-catalytic site on thrombin. Sequential shortening of the hirullin P18 C-terminal fragment demonstrates the critical nature of Phe51, which corresponds to the important Phe56 residue of hirudin. Although the sequences of hirullin P18(54-61) and hirudin(59-65) have substantial differences, the C-terminal functional domain represented by hirullin P18(50-61) appears to be comparable to hirudin(55-65) in terms of its functional role in antithrombin activity.
