PROTEIN
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • a N terminal signal peptide
  • one extracellular leucine-rich domain (14 LRRs)
  • a hydrophobic transmembrane domain near the C terminus
    • conjugated GlycoP
    HOMOLOGY
    interspecies homolog to murine Gp5
    Homologene
    FAMILY leucine-rich glycoprotein family
    CATEGORY adhesion
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION extracellular
        plasma membrane
    basic FUNCTION
  • mediating Von Willebrand factor -dependent platelets adhesion to blood vessels
  • GP1B complex involved in adhesion of a damaged vessel wall to the extra cellular matrix
    • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS coagulation/hemostasis
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • component of the GP1B (von Willebrand receptor) where it is non covalently bound to the GP1B complex
  • part of the Ib-V-IX system of surface glycoproteins that constitute the receptor for von Willebrand factor (VWF)
    • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein cleaved upon agonist-induced platelet activation and ADAM17 is the major enzyme mediating this process
