As tissue damage in sea squirts also releases trypsins and trypsin-like proteins and there is the thrombin like serine protease already mentioned 14, it is not too difficult for a mutation on one of these tryspin-like enzymes to result in a trypsin/proto-thrombin that activates short Factor XIII, making it more effective at cross-linking and stabilizing wounds.
