Abstract
Two-chain 70 000-dalton plasminogen activator of tissue origin displays only weak activity toward plasminogen in a two-component system. The rate of activation is enhanced a minimum of 50-fold by the presence of fibrin clots or denatured proteins. The stimulation must depend on both chemical determinants and spatial configuration, since native proteins, including fibrinogen, lack significant stimulatory activity. These studies employed chemical modifications of four stimulatory proteins (fibrin, denatured fibrinogen, denatured IgG and denatured ovalbumin) to identify a critical role for lysine residues. Arginine, aspartic acid, cysteine, cystine, glutamic acid, histidine, methionine, tyrosine and tryptophan were found not to be essential. The critical spatial determinant(s) remain(s) unknown.
