The architecture of integrin αIIbβ3 in the intermediate conformation and its interaction network. (A) The overall cryo-EM map of integrin αIIbβ3 in intermediate conformation at 2.67 Å resolution is shown. The right panel is the side of the headpiece facing the cell membrane. (B) Closeup of the cryo-EM density of the 4 metal ions at the β-propeller domain. (C) Closeup of the cryo-EM density of the 3 metal ions at SyMBS (Ca2+), MIDAS (Mg2+), and ADMIDAS (Ca2+) of the β-I domain. (D) 7-N-linked glycan sites within the solved region of the intermediate integrin αIIbβ3 were preserved.
