Fibrinogen

Description:
Fibrinogen, with the CAS number 9001-32-5, is a glycoprotein that plays a crucial role in the blood coagulation process. It is synthesized in the liver and is present in plasma, where it circulates in an inactive form. Upon vascular injury, fibrinogen is converted into fibrin by the enzyme thrombin, leading to the formation of a fibrin clot that helps to stop bleeding. Fibrinogen is composed of three pairs of polypeptide chains, designated as Aα, Bβ, and γ chains, which are linked by disulfide bonds. This protein is characterized by its high molecular weight and is soluble in plasma, making it a key component of the hemostatic system. Additionally, fibrinogen levels can be influenced by various factors, including inflammation, pregnancy, and certain diseases, making it a potential biomarker for various health conditions. Its role in clot formation and wound healing underscores its importance in both normal physiology and pathological states.
