We have shown that synthetic peptides containing the amino acid sequence Asn-Arg-Arg-Leu, derived from the amino acid sequence of the inner loop of the kringle-2 domain of tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA), inhibited complex formation between two chain tPA and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) by binding to PAI-1. This binding was reversible and was inhibited by not only tPA but also by enzymatically inactive tPA. Quantitative analyses of the interaction of PAI-1 with the peptide containing the Asn-Arg-Arg-Leu sequence indicated that the PAI-1 binding site residues in the inner loop of the kringle-2 domain and is preferentially expressed in two chain tPA.

D010455	Peptides	Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS.	Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
D010959	Tissue Plasminogen Activator	A proteolytic enzyme in the serine protease family found in many tissues which converts PLASMINOGEN to FIBRINOLYSIN. It has fibrin-binding activity and is immunologically different from UROKINASE-TYPE PLASMINOGEN ACTIVATOR. The primary sequence, composed of 527 amino acids, is identical in both the naturally occurring and synthetic proteases.
