It forms a fibrous mesh that impedes the flow of blood. Example sentencesExamples - Each microvillus contains a core of actin filaments organized in bundles by actin binding proteins such as villin, fibrin, and espin.
- Plasminogen binds to both fibrinogen and fibrin, thereby being incorporated into a clot as it is formed.
- In the assay, the addition of thrombin to citrated plasma causes the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin, yielding a stops bleeding much quicker.
- All of these agents convert plasminogen to plasmin, which in turn breaks down fibrin and promotes clot lysis.
- It converts fibrinogen to fibrin, and unlike thrombin, is unaffected by heparin.
