Figure 5. The effect of botrocetin on the kinetics of the GPIb -vWF-A1 tether bond. (a,b) Botrocetin does not enhance the cellular on-rate for either the human or mouse GPIb -vWF-A1 tether bond as observed for the type 2B mutation I546V. An enhancement in cellular on-rate is denoted as an increase in tethering frequency of protein-coated beads. Data represent mean s.d. for three independent experiments. WT, wild type.
