Used in research to study platelet function and signaling pathways involved in hemostasis and thrombosis. The Fc tag allows for easy detection and purification, making it valuable in immunoassays and protein interaction studies. It serves as a binding partner for ligand-receptor interaction experiments, particularly in assessing the role of GP6 in collagen-induced platelet activation. Commonly applied in drug development for antiplatelet therapies and in diagnostic platforms to understand bleeding disorders.
