Human platelet glycoprotein IIIb binds to thrombospondin fragments bearing the C-terminal region, and/or the type I repeats (CSVTCG motif), but not to the N-terminal heparin-binding region.

Major blood membrane platelet glycoprotein IIIb (GPIIIb), also termed GPIV or CD365, has been identified as a receptor for thrombospondin (TSP), collagen and Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes.
