The Proadhesive Properties of Multimerin in Supporting Cellular Adhesion: Evidence for RGD and Non-RGD Dependent Adhesive Mechanisms.

Abstract

Abstract Multimerin is a large soluble protein, with an uncertain function, found in platelets, megakaryocytes, endothelium and extracellular matrix fibers but not in plasma. The observation that multimerin contains structural features of an adhesive protein, including an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) sequence, led us to investigate its ability to support adhesion of platelets, megakaryocytes, endothelial cells and other cell types. …
