The β3 integrin cytoplasmic tyrosine (ICY) motif of αIIbβ3 becomes tyrosine phosphorylated
during platelet aggregation, causing Shc and myosin to interact with the β-integrin
cytoplasmic domain. Platelets from mice lacking β3 ICY motif tyrosines formed defective
aggregates and poorly retracted clots, establishing integrin tyrosine phosphorylation as a
key mediator of β3-integrin signals.
