Fibrinogen-binding Peptide

Fibrinogen-Binding Peptide (designed by anticomplementarity hypothesis) is a presumptive peptide mimic of the vitronectin binding site on the fibrinogen receptor. Fibrinogen-Binding Peptide binds fibrinogen and inhibits both the adhesion of platelets to fibrinogen and platelet aggregation, and also inhibits the adhesion of platelets to vitronectin.
