| UniProt code: P81397. |
| Organism: | Calloselasma rhodostoma (Malayan pit viper) (Agkistrodon rhodostoma). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Lepidosauria; Squamata; Bifurcata; Unidentata; Episquamata; Toxicofera; Serpentes; Colubroidea; Viperidae; Crotalinae; Calloselasma. | |
| Function: | Potent inhibitor of collagen-induced platelet aggregation. It acts by binding to the integrin alpha2A domain and blocks collagen binding to integrin alpha-2/beta-1 (ITGA2/ITGB1). The gamma/delta subunits mainly contribute to this activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10360956, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11121411, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12871211}. | |
| Subunit: | Heterotetramer of subunit alpha, beta, gamma and delta; only the gamma and the delta subunits are disulfide-linked. Alpha-beta heterodimer and gamma-delta heterodimer associate orthogonally, giving a cruciform conformation (PubMed:19369383). This heterotetramer may covalently dimerizes thanks to the gamma subunit (PubMed:11121411). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11121411, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15576563, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19369383}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Secreted. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Expressed by the venom gland. | |
| Mass spectrometry: | Mass=15955.90; Mass_error=1.44; Method=Electrospray; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:10360956}; | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the snaclec family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
