The platelet GPIIb-IIIa complex functions as a receptor for fibrinogen, fibronectin, and von Willebrand factor on activated platelets. This glycoprotein is a member of a broadly distributed family of structurally and immunologically related membrane receptors involved in cell-cell contact and cell-matrices interactions. GPIIb-IIIa is a heterodimer complex composed of GPIIb (the alpha subunit), which consists of two disulfide-linked heavy and light chains, and GPIIIa (the beta subunit), which is a single polypeptide chain. Congenital absence of platelet GPIIb-IIIa in Glanzmann's thrombasthenia results in a severe bleeding disorder characterized by defective platelet aggregation and failure of fibrinogen to bind to platelets. The gene coding for GPIIb was located on 17q21.1-17q21.3 as determined by in situ hybridization with a 2650-bp GP2B (GPIIb) cDNA probe prepared from human megakaryocytes.

D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.
