  18. MOLECULAR BIOLOGY OF THE THROMBOCYTE FIBRINOGEN RECEPTOR
    Thomas Kunicki; Fiscal Year: 2000
    ..AP7.3, in which the AP7 H3 loop has been replaced by the corresponding sequence from PAC1 (another antibody that binds only to the reconformed integrin), exhibits an increased selectivity for reconformed ..
