Does fibrin(ogen) bind to monomeric or dimeric GPVI, or not at all?

GPVI is the major signalling receptor for collagen on platelets. Dimerization of GPVI is required for collagen binding and initiation of signalling through the associated FcR-γ chain. Recently, fibrin and fibrinogen have been identified as ligands for GPVI and shown to induce signalling in support o...
