Background
The conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin occurs in several steps. First, thrombin cleaves the N-terminus of the fibrinogen alpha and beta chains to fibrinopeptide A and B respectively. The resulting fibrin monomers polymerize end to end to from protofibrils which in turn associate laterally to form fibrin fibers. In a final step, the fibrin fibers associate to form the fibrin gel.
