Description
The protein encoded by the Fibrinopeptide B gene is the beta component of fibrinogen, a blood-borne glycoprotein comprised of threepairs of nonidentical polypeptide chains. Following vascular injury, fibrinogen is cleaved by thrombin to form fibrinwhich is the most abundant component of blood clots. In addition, various cleavage products of fibrinogen and fibrinregulate cell adhesion and spreading, display vasoconstrictor and chemotactic activities, and are mitogens for severalcell types. Mutations in this gene lead to several disorders, including afibrinogenemia, dysfibrinogenemia,hypodysfibrinogenemia and thrombotic tendency. (provided by RefSeq)
