FGB blocking peptide
FGB Blocking Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes the beta subunit of the coagulation factor fibrinogen, which is a component of the blood clot. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed by thrombin to release an N-terminal fibrinopeptide during the conversion of fibrinogen to insoluble fibrin polymer. The encoded protein interacts with the amyloid beta peptide to form fibrin clots of abnormal structure, and may play an important role in Alzheimer's disease. This gene is located adjacent to the genes encoding fibrinogen alpha and gamma subunits on chromosome 3. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
Uniprot Description
Cleaved by the protease thrombin to yield monomers which, together with fibrinogen alpha (FGA) 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.

Product Notes
The FGB fgb (Catalog #AAA9620009) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's FGB can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Blocking/Control. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the FGB fgb for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "FGB, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
