Platelet glycoprotein Ib alpha chain also known as glycoprotein Ib (platelet), alpha polypeptideorCD42b (Cluster of Differentiation 42b), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GP1BA gene.

Function[edit]

Glycoprotein Ib (GP Ib) is a platelet surface membrane glycoprotein receptor composed of a heterodimer, an alpha chain and a beta chain, that are linked by disulfide bonds.^[5] The Gp Ib functions as a receptor for von Willebrand factor (VWF). The complete receptor complex includes noncovalent association of the alpha and beta subunits with platelet glycoprotein IX and platelet glycoprotein V to form the glycoprotein Ib-IX-V complex. Binding of the GP Ib-IX-V complex to VWF facilitates initial platelet adhesion to vascular subendothelium after vascular injury,^[6] and also initiates signaling events within the platelet that lead to enhanced platelet activation, thrombosis, and hemostasis.^[7] This gene encodes the alpha subunit. Several polymorphisms and mutations have been described in this gene, some of which are the cause of Bernard–Soulier syndromes and platelet-type von Willebrand disease.^[8]

Interactions[edit]

GP1BA has been shown to interact with YWHAZ^[9][10][11] and FLNB.^[12]
