Protein: von Willebrand factor (vWF) [Cleaved into: von Willebrand antigen 2 (von Willebrand antigen II)] (Q8CIZ8)
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse)
Function: Important in the maintenance of hemostasis, it promotes adhesion of platelets to the sites of vascular injury by forming a molecular bridge between sub-endothelial collagen matrix and platelet-surface receptor complex GPIb-IX-V. Also acts as a chaperone for coagulation factor VIII, delivering it to the site of injury, stabilizing its heterodimeric structure and protecting it from premature clearance from plasma.
Subcellular location: Secreted {ECO:0000250}. Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix {ECO:0000250}. Note=Localized to storage granules. {ECO:0000250}.
