The roles of factor XIIIa-specific cross-links in thrombus formation, regression, or probability for embolization are largely unknown. A molecular understanding of fibrin architecture at the level of these cross-links could inform the development of therapeutic strategies to prevent the sequelae of thromboembolism. Here, we present an MS-based method to map native factor XIIIa cross-links in the insoluble matrix component of whole-blood or plasma-fibrin clots and in <i>in vivo</i> thrombi. Using ...[more]
