Basic description
|
Fibrinogen Binding Inhibitor Peptide, a synthetic dodecapeptide, represents the specific platelet receptor recognition site of the human fibrinogen g-chain (residues 400-411). It is also a potent inhibitor of the binding of fibrinogen, fibronectin, and von Willebrand factor to thrombin- or ADP-stimulated platelets. Fibrinogen Binding Inhibitor Peptide has been used in studying phosphorylation processes associated with platelet activation.

Annotation
|
In activated platelets, single γ 400-411 sequence is no longer required for initiation of adhesion but becomes sufficient for firm adhesion. In contrast to the binding of whole fibrinogen, binding of fragment 400-411 does not lead to tyrosine phosphorylation for platelet proteins.
