| Post Translational Modifications | The alpha chain is normally not N-glycosylated, even though glycosylation at Asn-686 was observed when a fragment of the protein was expressed in insect cells. It is well known that heterologous expression of isolated domains can lead to adventitious protein modifications. Besides, glycosylation at Asn-686 is supported by large-scale glycoproteomics studies, but the evidence is still quite tenuous. Most likely, Asn-686 is not glycosylated in the healthy human body, or only with low efficiency. O-glycosylated. Forms F13A-mediated cross-links between a glutamine and the epsilon-amino group of a lysine residue, forming fibronectin-fibrinogen heteropolymers. About one-third of the alpha chains in the molecules in blood were found to be phosphorylated. Conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin is triggered by thrombin, which cleaves fibrinopeptides A and B from alpha and beta chains, and thus exposes the N-terminal polymerization sites responsible for the formation of the soft clot. The soft clot is converted into the hard clot by factor XIIIA which catalyzes the epsilon-(gamma-glutamyl)lysine cross-linking between gamma chains (stronger) and between alpha chains (weaker) of different monomers. Phosphorylated by FAM20C in the extracellular medium. |
| Function | Cleaved by the protease thrombin to yield monomers which, together with fibrinogen beta (FGB) and fibrinogen gamma (FGG), polymerize to form an insoluble fibrin matrix. Fibrin has a major function in hemostasis as one of the primary components of blood clots. In addition, functions during the early stages of wound repair to stabilize the lesion and guide cell migration during re-epithelialization. Was originally thought to be essential for platelet aggregation, based on in vitro studies using anticoagulated blood. However, subsequent studies have shown that it is not absolutely required for thrombus formation in vivo. Enhances expression of SELP in activated platelets via an ITGB3-dependent pathway. Maternal fibrinogen is essential for successful pregnancy. Fibrin deposition is also associated with infection, where it protects against IFNG-mediated hemorrhage. May also facilitate the immune response via both innate and T-cell mediated pathways. |

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Human Fibrinogen (Fibrinogen) Antibody Pair (STJAP00869)
This antibody pair is designed to detect human Fibrinogen (UniProt P02671) and has confirmed reactivity with human samples only. It is not validated for use with other species.
Both the capture and detection antibodies are rabbit-derived monoclonal antibodies, with clone IDs R03-5N-7 and R04-8Q-8 respectively. Both are IgG isotype and supplied unconjugated.
This antibody pair is validated for use in ELISA. It has not been validated for other assay formats such as lateral flow or multiplex-based assays.
Both antibodies were raised against a recombinant protein immunogen corresponding to human Fibrinogen. No specific immunogen region is listed in the product documentation.
Both antibodies are formulated in 0.01M PBS at pH 7.2 and purified by affinity chromatography. They should be stored at 4°C for short-term use, aliquoted, and stored at -20°C for long-term storage, with repeated freeze/thaw cycles avoided.
Optimal working dilutions for both the capture and detection antibodies are to be determined by the end user through titration experiments. No predefined dilution range is specified in the product documentation.
