Stoichiometric analysis reveals a unique phosphatidylserine binding site in coagulation factor X.

We quantified 1.05 ± 0.2 PS molecules per bound factor X molecule in Nanodiscs containing a mixture of 10% PS, 60% PE, and 30% phosphatidylcholine. Hence, there appears to be one truly PS-specific binding site per Gla domain, while the remaining membrane binding interactions can be satisfied by PE.
