The second platelet GP of interest is GPIbα, a transmembranous platelet GP (molecular weight, 143,000) that forms noncovalent complexes with GPIbβ, GPIX, and GPV to form the GPIb/IX/V receptor, which is involved in shear stress-induced platelet activation by binding to von Willebrand factor (vWF).
Whereas noncovalent interactions appear to be the predominant mechanism for oligonucleotide attachment, covalent linkage is likely to have an important supplementary role in UV-irradiated microarrays.
Attachment involves noncovalent interactions such as electrostatic interactions, where the negatively charged phosphate backbone of the oligonucleotide is attracted to the positively charged surface of the glass slide (for example, a surface containing protonated alkyl amines).
They consist of two distinct, associated subunits (noncovalent heterodimers), where each subunit (α, β) consists of a single transmembrane domain, a large extracellular domain of several hundred amino acids (composed of multiple structural domains), and typically, a small cytoplasmic domain of somewhere between 20–70 residues (Figure 1).
