Fig. 6: Immunoelectron microscopy comparing the distribution of multimerin and factor V in resting platelets. A portion of a resting platelet containing four alpha-granules is shown. The small immunogold particles indicate multimerin (mm) and the large immunogold particles indicate factor V (fV). Both proteins are located in an eccentric location within alpha-granules, and granules containing label for both proteins demonstrate colocalization of these 2 proteins.[7] Modified and reproduced with permission.
