[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FIBG_HUMAN FIBG_HUMAN]] Defects in FGG are a cause of congenital afibrinogenemia (CAFBN) [MIM:[http://omim.org/entry/202400 202400]]. This rare autosomal recessive disorder is characterized by bleeding that varies from mild to severe and by complete absence or extremely low levels of plasma and platelet fibrinogen. Note=Patients with congenital fibrinogen abnormalities can manifest different clinical pictures. Some cases are clinically silent, some show a tendency toward bleeding and some show a predisposition for thrombosis with or without bleeding. | |||
==Function== | |||
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FIBG_HUMAN FIBG_HUMAN]] Fibrinogen has a double function: yielding monomers that polymerize into fibrin and acting as a cofactor in platelet aggregation. | |||
