Description

The F10 gene encodes coagulation factor X, a vitamin K-dependent serine protease that plays a central role in blood coagulation. Factor X is synthesized in the liver and secreted as a zymogen. Upon activation by factor IXa (in the intrinsic pathway) or factor VIIa (in the extrinsic pathway), factor Xa converts prothrombin to thrombin, initiating the common coagulation pathway. Mutations in F10 cause factor X deficiency, a rare bleeding disorder, and polymorphisms influence warfarin sensitivity.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Factor X deficiency Loss-of-function mutations in F10 reduce factor X activity, impairing thrombin generation and leading to bleeding tendency. ClinVar, OMIM
Thrombophilia Gain-of-function variants (e.g., p.Gly380Arg) increase factor Xa activity, predisposing to venous thromboembolism. ClinVar, OMIM
Warfarin sensitivity Polymorphisms in F10 affect warfarin dose requirements by altering factor X synthesis or activity. NCBI Gene, ClinVar

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.488G>A (p.Gly163Asp) Missense Rare Loss of function; associated with factor X deficiency
c.1138G>A (p.Gly380Arg) Missense Rare Gain of function; associated with thrombophilia
c.1A>G (p.Met1Val) Missense Rare Loss of function; initiation codon mutation causing factor X deficiency
c.1240C>T (p.Arg414Cys) Missense Rare Loss of function; disrupts disulfide bond formation
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Missense, nonsense, frameshift, and splice-site mutations that reduce factor X activity cause factor X deficiency (autosomal recessive bleeding disorder).

Gain of Function (GOF)

Missense mutations such as p.Gly380Arg increase factor Xa activity and are associated with thrombophilia.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Not reported for F10; factor X deficiency is typically recessive.

Gene Ontology (GO)

• serine-type endopeptidase activity • calcium ion binding
• blood coagulation • proteolysis
• extracellular space • endoplasmic reticulum lumen

Pathways

• Blood coagulation (intrinsic and extrinsic pathways)
• Common pathway of coagulation
• Vitamin K metabolism

Protein Summary

Coagulation factor X is a vitamin K-dependent glycoprotein synthesized as a single-chain zymogen (precursor) of 488 amino acids. After removal of the signal peptide and propeptide, the mature protein circulates as a two-chain molecule (light chain and heavy chain) linked by a disulfide bond. The light chain contains a Gla domain (calcium binding) and two EGF-like domains; the heavy chain contains the serine protease catalytic domain. Activation by factor IXa or VIIa cleaves the activation peptide, yielding factor Xa, which then converts prothrombin to thrombin.
