| Purification: | Purified Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody |
| Description: | FGA is the alpha component of fibrinogen, a blood-borne glycoprotein comprised of three pairs of nonidentical polypeptide chains. Following vascular injury, fibrinogen is cleaved by thrombin to form fibrin which is the most abundant component of blood clots. In addition, various cleavage products of fibrinogen and fibrin regulate cell adhesion and spreading, display vasoconstrictor and chemotactic activities, and are mitogens for several cell types. |
| Further Information: | This FGA antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 116-144 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human FGA. |
| Synonym: | Fibrinogen alpha chain, Fibrinopeptide A, Fibrinogen alpha chain, FGA |
