7. fibrin
   Monomeric fibrin (323 kD) is produced from fibrinogen by proteolytic removal of the highly charged (aspartate- and glutamate-rich) fibrinopeptidesby thrombin, in the presence of calcium ions. The monomer readily polymerizes to form long insoluble fibres (23nm periodicity; half-staggered) that are stabilized by covalent crosslinking (by Factor XIII, plasma transglutaminase). The fibrin gel acts as a haemostatic plug.

    Insoluble protein involved in blood clotting. When an injury occurs fibrin is deposited around the wound in the form of a mesh, which dries and hardens, so that bleeding stops.
