Abstract
The bovine caseinoglycopeptide (residues 106-169), the C-terminal part of kappa-casein, inhibited the von Willebrand factor-dependent platel et aggregation in a dose-dependent manner. An affinity matrix made of the caseinoglycopeptide selectively bound the platelet membrane glycop rotein GPIb alpha which contains the von Willebrand factor binding sit e. The amino acid residues of GPIb alpha participating in the caseinog lycopepride binding were located after residue Glu(90).
