Aggretin, a Heterodimeric C-type Lectin from Calloselasma rhodostoma (Malayan Pit Viper), Stimulates Platelets by Binding to α2β1 Integrin and Glycoprotein Ib, Activating Syk and Phospholipase Cγ2, but Does Not Involve the Glycoprotein VI/Fc Receptor γ Chain Collagen Receptor

Aggretin, a potent platelet activator, was isolated from Calloselasma rhodostoma venom, and 30-amino acid N-terminal sequences of both subunits were determined. Aggretin belongs to the heterodimeric snake C-type lectin family and is thought to activate platelets by binding to platelet glycoprotein Î...
