Preferred Label : kininogen, high-molecular-weight;
MeSH definition : A plasma protein, molecular weight of 110 kD, that normally exists in plasma in a
1:1 complex with PREKALLIKREIN. HMWK is split by plasma kallikrein to produce BRADYKININ.
The complex is a cofactor in the activation of coagulation factor XII. The product
of this reaction, XIIa, in turn activates prekallikrein to KALLIKREINS. (From Stedman,
26th ed);
