This system also requires about a dozen other protein clotting factors. <ref name=Blood Clotting | A blood clotting consists of a plug of platelets enmeshed in a network of insoluble fibrin molecules.

Antithrombin III is a plasma protein (a serpin) prevents the formation of thrombin by binding to prothrombin. <ref name=Blood Clotting | Blood clotting system is controlled by antithrombin III, heparin, and protein C.
