Initiation of the coagulation protease cascade as it assembles on cell surfaces requires limited proteolytic activation of the zymogen factor X. Not previously suspected to be the ligand of an organizing receptor on cell surfaces, we now describe that factor X specifically associates with cells of monocyte lineage and we identify the high affinity receptor for this zymogen. Following stimulation with ADP (10 microM), or with the ionophore ionomycin (1 microM), isolated human monocytes bind 125I-factor X in a saturable fashion with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 21.8-44.9 nM. Equilibrium binding analyses indicate that the reaction is optimal at room temperature, requires Ca2+ ions, and saturates at 128,500 +/- 21,300 molecules of 125I-factor X specifically associated with the cell surface. Molar excess of unlabeled factor X inhibits and reverses the binding, whereas the homologous gamma-carboxylated coagulation proteins factors II, VII, IX, IXa, and Xa are without effect. Similarly, chelation of divalent ions immediately dissociates bound 125I-factor X. The monoblast cell line U 937 and the monocytic cell line THP-1 when stimulated with ADP or ionomycin, bind 125I-factor X with characteristics similar to monocytes. Receptor identity was explored using antibodies to the leukocyte adhesive receptors Mac-1, LFA-1, and p150.95. Monoclonal antibodies specific for the alpha subunit of Mac-1 (M 1/70, LM 2/1) or for the common beta subunit (TS 1/18, 60.3) bound equally to resting and...
