Abstract excerpt

Glycoprotein (GP) Ib-IX-V complex plays an important role in formation of platelet-fibrin clot at the area of damaged vessel wall. One polymorphism of GP Ibalpha, the main component of GP Ib-IX-V complex, is due to variable numbers of tandem repeats (VNTRs) in the macroglycopeptide region of this molecule. We studied the association between the presence of different VNTR alleles of GP Ibalpha and the frequency of...
