Coagulation Factor VII
Definition 1
A clotting factor found in the serum. It combines with tissue factor (factor III) to activate factor X in the clotting pathway. (NCI Thesaurus)
Definition 2
Heat- and storage-stable plasma protein that is activated by tissue thromboplastin to form factor VIIa in the extrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. The activated form then catalyzes the activation of factor X to factor Xa. (NLM, Medical Subject Headings)
