MD Simulations on a Well-Built Docking Model Reveal Fine Mechanical Stability and Force-Dependent Dissociation of Mac-1/GPIbα Complex

Interaction of leukocyte integrin macrophage-1 antigen (Mac-1) to platelet glycoprotein Ibα (GPIbα) is critical for platelet–leukocyte crosstalk in hemostasis and inflammatory responses to vessel injuries under hemodynamic environments. The mechano-regulation and its molecular basis for binding of M...
