Feys HB et al. – Hereditary thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura is caused by mutations in ADAMTS13 resulting in defective processing of von Willebrand factor (VWF) which causes intravascular platelet aggregation culminating in thrombocytopenia with shistocytic anemia. In this study the functional and structural role of a recently identified ADAMTS13 metalloprotease domain mutation S119F was investigated. The S119–W262 H–bond is crucial for maximal turnover.
