Glycoprotein VI (platelet), also known as GPVI, is a

platelets. In humans, glycoprotein VI is encoded by the GPVI gene.[5]
GPVI was first cloned in 2000 by several groups including that of Martine Jandrot-Perrus from INSERM.

Function

Glycoprotein VI (GP6) is a 58-kD platelet membrane glycoprotein that plays a crucial role in the collagen-induced activation and aggregation of platelets. Upon injury to the vessel wall and subsequent damage to the

atherosclerotic plaques is a major stimulus of thrombus formation associated with myocardial infarction or stroke.[6][7]

Complete or partial deficiency of GPVI in humans is a rare condition presenting as a mild bleeding disorder.
