ProteinExpression: Standard glycoprotein analysis confirmed the absence of αIIbβ3 in their platelets but while western blotting failed to reveal αIIb, residual β3 was at about 10% of usual levels and of normal migration (illustrated for GT1 in supplemental Figure 1).
PlateletAggregation: Platelets of all 3 patients failed to aggregate in response to a range of physiologic agonists but were agglutinated by ristocetin. Clot retraction was also defective.
CasePreviousTesting: Screened ITGA2B and ITGB3 genes of all three probands. Direct sequencing of all coding regions and splice sites of ITGA2B (30 exons) showed mutation.
Gene: ITGA2B
