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);

MeSH synonym : high-molecular-weight kininogens; high-molecular-weight kininogen; high molecular weight kininogen; high molecular weight kininogens; kininogens, high molecular weight; hmwk; kininogens, high-molecular-weight; fitzgerald factor; kininogen, high molecular weight;
