Summary
This gene encodes the beta subunit of the coagulation factor fibrinogen, which is a component of the blood clot. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed by thrombin to release an N-terminal fibrinopeptide during the conversion of fibrinogen to insoluble fibrin polymer. The encoded protein interacts with the amyloid beta peptide to form fibrin clots of abnormal structure, and may play an important role in Alzheimer's disease. This gene is located adjacent to the genes encoding fibrinogen alpha and gamma subunits on chromosome 3. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
