TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Aegyptin displays high-affinity for the von Willebrand factor binding site (RGQOGVMGF) in collagen and inhibits carotid thrombus formation in vivo

Aegyptin is a 30 kDa mosquito salivary gland protein that binds to collagen and inhibits platelet aggregation. We have studied the biophysical properties of aegyptin and its mechanism of action. Light-scattering plot showed that aegyptin has an elongated monomeric form, which explains the apparent molecular mass of 110 kDa estimated by gel-filtration chromatography. | Aegyptin displays high-affinity for the von Willebrand factor binding site RGQOGVMGF in collagen and inhibits carotid thrombus formation in vivo Eric Calvo1 z Fuyuki Tokumasu2 Daniella M.
