  • Title: The activation of two isozymes of glu-plasminogen (I and II) by urokinase and streptokinase.
    Author: Takada A, Takada Y.
    Journal: Thromb Res; 1983 Jun 15; 30(6):633-42. PubMed ID: 6351345.
    Abstract:
    Glu-plasminogen (Glu-plg) was eluted through lysine-Sepharose by using a gradient of 6 aminohexanoic acid, and two peaks corresponding to Glu-plg I and II were obtained. Glu-plg I has a molecular weight of 93,000 and Glu-plg II has a molecular weight of 89,000. When these plgs were activated by urokinase (UK) or streptokinase (SK) in the presence of S-2251 (H-D-Val-Leu-Lys-pNA0, the hydrolysis of S-2251 by Glu-plg I activated by UK or SK was larger than that by Glu-plg II activated by UK or SK. The results of SDS-PAGE indicate that the conversion of Glu-plg I to plasmin by UK was faster than that of Glu-plg II. It may be concluded that Glu-plg I is activated better to plasmin by activators than Glu-plg II.
