  • Title: Interaction of fibrinogen with mercury.
    Author: Wierzbicki R, Michalska M, Cierniewski CS.
    Journal: Thromb Res; 1983 Jun 15; 30(6):579-85. PubMed ID: 6612685.
    Abstract:
    The interaction of bovine fibrinogen with mercuric chloride was studied. Gel filtration on Sephadex G-25 revealed that fibrinogen bound twice the amount of mercury such as fibrin or fibrin monomers (8.8, 4.5, and 3.4 micrograms Hg2+ ions/mg protein, respectively). Fibrinogen complexed with mercury or in the presence of Hg2+ ions at concentration above 10-6 M was clotted by thrombin more effectively than in the control system which was devoid of this metal. Reaggregation of the purified fibrin monomers was not affected by mercury.
