a serine proteinase inhibitor of the serpin family; it is a single-chain glycoprotein, M r 65,000, that inhibits thrombin. It resembles antithrombin III in being markedly stimulated by heparin; it differs in that it binds and is activated by dermatan sulfate and in that it does not inhibit any other activated coagulation factors.
