Abstract excerpt
Platelets achieve bleeding arrest at sites of vascular injury via secretion of secretory proteins from their storage granules, termed alpha-granules. We have recently analyzed granule targeting of platelet factor 4 (PF4), a secretory alpha-granule chemokine, and demonstrated that PF4 alpha-granule storage relied upon determinants within PF4 mature sequence. To define these determinants, PF4 mutants fused to the...
