The N-terminal autoinhibitory module of the A1 domain in von Willebrand factor stabilizes the mechanosensor catch bond

The von Willebrand factor (VWF), by interacting with the circulatory system and platelets, harnesses hemodynamic forces to form hemostatic plugs or occlusive thrombi. The autoinhibitory modules (AIMs) flanking the VWF-A1 domain were found to contribute to its biomechanical activation. However, how A...
