Which proteolytic enzyme induces lysis of fibrin during fibrinolysis? (a) Fibrin (b) Thrombin (c) Plasmin (d) Platelet factor VII
Points cleave a portion of the fibrinogen molecule, resulting in the formation of a fibrin monomer. This cleavage process involves the conversion of fibrinopeptide A and fibrinogen into alpha and beta polypeptides. Prothrombin, collagen, thrombin, and plasmin are also involved in the formation and regulation of fibrin.
