Polyphosphate Delays Fibrin Polymerisation and Alters the Mechanical Properties of the Fibrin Network

Polyphosphate (polyP) binds to fibrin(ogen) and alters fibrin structure, generating a heterogeneous network composed of ‘knots’ interspersed by large pores. Here we show platelet-derived polyP elicits similar structural changes in fibrin and examine the mechanism by which polyP alters fibrin structu...
