FIB has various meanings in the Technology category. Discover the full forms, definitions, and usage contexts of FIB in Technology.
Fibrinogen is a glycoprotein in vertebrates that helps in the formation of blood clots. It consists of a linear array of three nodules held together by a very thin thread which is estimated to have a diameter between 8 and 15 Angstrom. The two end nodules are alike but the center one is slightly smaller.
TechnologyFibronectin is a high-molecular weight (~440kDa) glycoprotein of the extracellular matrix that binds to membrane-spanning receptor proteins called integrins. Similar to integrins, fibronectin binds extracellular matrix components such as collagen, fibrin, and heparan sulfate proteoglycans.
