Background

The glycoprotein (GP) Ib-IX complex is the receptor on platelet surfaces that mediates their adhesion to subendothelium. It comprises three polypeptides (GP Ib alpha, GP Ib beta, GP IX), each of which belongs to a superfamily of proteins containing conserved leucine-rich motifs. Association between GP Ib alpha and GP Ib beta was demonstrated biochemically on immunoblots of detergent lysates of CHO alpha beta cells; electrophoresis under nonreducing conditions revealed the two subunits to be covalently linked through a disulfide bond.
