Purification and preliminary characterization of the glycoprotein Ib complex in the human platelet membrane

Abstract: Human platelet glycoprotein Ib (GP Ib) i s a major integral membrane protein that has been identified as the platelet-binding site mediating the factor VIII/von Willebrand-factor-dependent adhesion of platelets to vascular subendothelium. Recent evidence suggests that G P Ib is normally coinplexed with another platelet membrane protein, GP IX. In this study, human platelet plasma membranes were selectively solubilized with a buffer containing 0.1% (v/v) Triton X-100. The GPIb complex (GPIb plus GPIX) was purif… Show more

“…Earlier reports describing GPIb purifications were mostly done with labeled platelet proteins as starting material [21] or the purity of the isolated components was established by gel electrophoresis followed by staining with relatively insensitive reagents such as Coomassie brilliant blue or periodic acid/Schiff s reagent [15]. Therefore, associated proteins within the plasma membrane or cytoplasmic proteins, or even membrane proteins that are partially external, which are poorly labeled, could not be detected.…”

“…The 'GPIb complex' as we define it here consists of those proteins which are reproducibly found associated with GPIb when the latter is isolated in the presence of non-denaturing detergents. GP17, also called GP22 or GPIX, is apparently present as a 1 : l complex with GPIb [15] and it partitions exclusively into the hydrophilic phase in Triton X-114 separations along with GPIb, although it also has the properties of an integral protein. Purified GP17 can only be kept in solution in the presence of detergent, suggesting that it must contain one or more hydrophobic domains.…”
