Fibrin is a filamentous network made in blood to stem bleeding; it forms when fibrinogen is converted into fibrin monomers that self-associate into oligomers and then to polymers. To gather structural insights into fibrin formation and properties, we combined high-resolution atomic force microscopy of fibrin(ogen) oligomers and molecular modeling of crystal structures of fibrin(ogen) and its fragments...
Fibrinogen, upon enzymatic conversion to monomeric fibrin, provides the building blocks for fibrin polymer, the scaffold of blood clots and thrombi. Little has been known about the force-induced unfolding of fibrin(ogen), even though it is the foundation for the mechanical and rheological properties of fibrin, which are essential for hemostasis. We determined mechanisms and mapped the free energy...
