Abstract

The formation of complexes between various thrombin preparations and 30-mer aptamer DNA was comparatively studied, and a correlation between the complex formation and the fibrinogen-hydrolyzing activity of thrombin was found. The aptamer DNA was shown to inhibit the formation of fibrin from fibrinogen.
