The enigmatic αIIb β-propeller: Structural insights from select missense mutations
2024-06-07
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Integrin αIIbβ3 is the predominant receptor for fibrinogen which mediates platelet aggregation, an important step in hemostasis and thrombosis. Several mutations have been reported in the genes encoding αIIb and β3 subunits among patients with Glanzmann thrombasthenia, of which 177 are in the β-propeller domain. The two subunits form a heterodimer at the interface between β-propeller an...
