Fibrinopeptide A is a substance released as part of the blood clotting process.
Fibrinogen, the principal protein of vertebrate blood clotting is a hexamer containing two sets of three different chains (alpha, Beta, and gamma), linked to each other by disulfide bonds.
The N-terminal sections of these three chains contain the cysteines that participate in the cross-linking of the chains.
The C-terminal parts of the alpha, Beta and gamma chains contain a domain of about 225aa residues, which can function as a molecular recognition unit.
In fibrinogen as well as in angiopoietin this domain is implicated in protein-protein interactions.
In lectins, such as mammalian ficolins and invertebrate tachylectin 5A, the fibrinogen C-terminal domain binds carbohydrates.
On the fibrinogen alpha and Beta chains, there is a small peptide sequence (called a fibrinopeptide).
It is these small peptides that prevent fibrinogen spontaneously forming polymers with itself.
