Abstract excerpt
We have examined the interaction of thrombin with fibrinogen A alpha chain residues 7-16. Using genetically engineered constructions, we have synthesized in Escherichia coli a fibrinogen A alpha 1-50 fusion protein and seven mutant proteins with single amino acid substitutions. These are: Asp7----Ala, Phe8----Tyr, Glu11----Ala, Gly12----Val, Gly13----Val, Gly14----Val, and Arg16----Leu. Competitive immunoassay of...
