Abstract
Comparative analyses of the cytoskeletons of resting and stimulated platelets point out the involvement of a 79 kDa polypeptide in the activation step and its increased incorporation during aggregation. It appears as a doublet and cross‐reacts with an antibody to chicken gizzard caldesmon, whereas no 150 kDa immunoreactive form was detected. α‐Actinin and gelsolin were detected only in the aggregation step.Keywords
