Identifying the molecular basis of inherited platelet disorders has contributed to our understanding of normal platelet physiology. Many of these conditions are rare, but close observation of clinical and laboratory phenotype, and subsequent identification of the abnormal protein and mutated gene, have provided us with unique opportunities to examine specific aspects of platelet biogenesis and function....
