Von Willebrand Factor A2 Domain
|
This is the crystal structure of the VWF A2 domain, elucidated by Zhang, et al.
Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a large multimeric glycoprotein with a critical role in maintaining hemostasis. VWF serves as the carrier protein for the plasma coagulation protein factor VIII (FVIII) and promotes platelet adhesion and aggregation at the sites of vascular damage.[1]
