Official Full Name: fibrinogen like 1<br />Also known as: HPS; HFREP1; HP-041; LFIRE1; LFIRE-1<br />Fibrinogen-like 1 is a member of the fibrinogen family. This protein is homologous to the carboxy-terminus of the β- and γ-subunits of fibrinogen containing four conserved cysteines of fibrinogen and fibrinogen-related proteins. However, this protein lacks platelet-binding sites, cross-linking regions, and thrombin-sensitive sites that are required for fibrin clot formation. This protein may play a role in the development of HCC. Four alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein are present in this gene.
