Show abstract
Thrombostasin is a cysteine-free anticoagulant protein produced by the horn fly Haematobia irritans, featuring an unusual stretch of seven consecutive aspartate residues within the polypeptide sequence. Here, we report the first chemical synthesis of native thrombostasin and a hepta-glutamate analogue, together with assessment of their thrombin inhibitory and anticoagulant activity.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
