Journal ArticleDOI

Fibrinogen and Fibrin

TL;DR: At Atomic-level details are now in hand for many of the interactions that hold fibrin units together, although some aspects have yet to be resolved.
Book ChapterDOI

Structural aspects of the fibrinogen to fibrin conversion.

TL;DR: This chapter focuses on the general shape of the native fibrinogen molecule and on the arrangement of the three pairs of nonidentical polypeptide chains that comprise the molecule and describes the relative locations of the amino and the carboxyterminals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hemostasis in neonates and children: pitfalls and dilemmas.

TL;DR: The current understanding of developmental hemostasis is explained and the common pitfalls observed in clinical practice through failure to implement the principles into routine diagnostic work are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heterogeneity of bovine fibrinogen and fibrin.

TL;DR: Observations indicate that within an individual animal there are as many as 36 different fibrinogen molecules, differing either in the composition of γ chains or in the content of bound phosphate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Developmental haemostasis: Secondary haemostasis

TL;DR: This paper will focus on developmental changes in secondary haemostasis, that is, the plasma protein changes that occur with age, particularly during the fetal and neonatal period, when the changes are most marked compared to the adult system.

Journal ArticleDOI

The polymerization of proteins; the action of thrombin on fibrinogen.

TL;DR: Viscosity measurements and ultracentrifugal experiments show no difference between fibr inogen and fibrinogen incubated with thrombin, both kept at pH 4.85, although the progressing action of thromin can be demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amino-Acid Sequence and the Occurrence of Phosphorus in Human Fibrinopeptides

TL;DR: The complete amino-acid sequences of the bovine fibrinopeptides have been determined and substantial variations have been found in the amino- acid compositions and sequences in different species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Studies on the physiological activity of the peptide released during the fibrinogen-fibrin conversion.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the β-peptide, which is released during the blood-clotting process, may play a vital role in the regulation of the microcirculation of the blood.
