Antithrombotic effect of a protein-type I class snake venom metalloproteinase, kistomin, is mediated by affecting glycoprotein Ib-von Willebrand factor interaction
{{output}}
Binding of von Willebrand factor (vWF) to platelet glycoprotein (GP) Ib-IX-V mediates platelet activation in the early stage of thrombus formation. Kistomin, a snake venom metalloproteinase (SVMP) purified from venom of Calloselasma rhodostoma, has been shown ... ...
