Function
[SLA_CRODU] Snake venom lectin that activates platelets by binding to the platelet collagen receptor glycoprotein VI (GP6) (PubMed:9153205). The indirect activation of integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 (ITGA2B/ITGB3) also induced by the toxin is upstream the cytoskeletal translocation of GPIb, FcRgamma (FCER1G) and 14-3-3zeta (YWHAZ)(PubMed:16102113).[1] [2] [SLB_CRODU] Snake venom lectin that activates platelets by binding to the platelet collagen receptor glycoprotein VI (GP6) (PubMed:9153205).

Publication Abstract from PubMed
Snake venoms contain a number of proteins that interact with components of the haemostatic system that promote or inhibit events leading to blood-clot formation. The snake-venom protein convulxin (Cvx) binds glycoprotein (GP) VI, the platelet receptor for collagen, and triggers signal transduction. Here, the 2.7 A resolution crystal structure of Cvx is presented. In common with other members of this snake-venom protein family, Cvx is an alphabeta-heterodimer and conforms to the C-type lectin-fold topology. Comparison with other family members allows a set of Cvx residues that form a concave surface to be putatively implicated in GPVI binding. Unlike other family members, with the exception of flavocetin-A (FL-A), Cvx forms an (alphabeta)(4) tetramer. This oligomeric structure is consistent with Cvx clustering GPVI molecules on the surface of platelets and as a result promoting signal transduction activity. The Cvx structure and the location of the putative binding sites suggest a model for this multimeric signalling assembly.
