activation remains unclear because of the absence of a modality for analysis. Lymphocyte
adaptor protein (Lnk; also known as Sh2b3) is an adaptor protein that inhibits
thrombopoietin-mediated signaling, and as a result, megakaryocyte and platelet counts are
elevated in Lnk–/–mice. Here we describe an unanticipated role for Lnk in stabilizing
thrombus formation and clarify the activities of Lnk in platelets transduced through integrin …
