The snake venom C-type lectin alboaggregin A (or 50-kd
alboaggregin) from Trimeresurus albolabris was
previously shown to be a platelet glycoprotein (GP) Ib agonist.
However, investigations of the signal transduction induced in platelets
showed patterns of tyrosine phosphorylation that were different from
those of other GPIb agonists and suggested the presence of an
additional receptor. In this study, the binding of biotinylated
alboaggregin A to platelet lysates, as well as affinity chromatography
evaluations of platelet lysates on an alboaggregin A-coated column,
indicated that this other receptor is GPVI. Additional experiments with reagents that inhibit either GPIb or GPVI specifically supported this
finding. These experiments also showed that both GPIb and GPVI have a
role in the combined signaling and that the overall direction this
takes can be influenced by inhibitors of one or the other receptor pathway.
