Investigations on the primary structure of human plasminogen. Further evidence for sequence homology. 1976

E E Rickli, and W Lergier, and D Gillessen

NH2-Terminal sequences were determined by the automated Edman method in four fragments which were isolated from a mixture of fragments obtained by CNBr cleavage of human plasminogen. One of the fragments whose sequence was determined over the first 31 residues shows sequence homologies with the fragment that forms the linkage between the plasmin chains and also with the non-thrombin part of prothrombin.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010446 Peptide Fragments Partial proteins formed by partial hydrolysis of complete proteins or generated through PROTEIN ENGINEERING techniques. Peptide Fragment,Fragment, Peptide,Fragments, Peptide
D010958 Plasminogen Precursor of plasmin (FIBRINOLYSIN). It is a single-chain beta-globulin of molecular weight 80-90,000 found mostly in association with fibrinogen in plasma; plasminogen activators change it to fibrinolysin. It is used in wound debriding and has been investigated as a thrombolytic agent. Profibrinolysin,Glu-Plasminogen,Glutamic Acid 1-Plasminogen,Glutamyl Plasminogen,1-Plasminogen, Glutamic Acid,Glu Plasminogen,Glutamic Acid 1 Plasminogen,Plasminogen, Glutamyl
D011516 Prothrombin A plasma protein that is the inactive precursor of thrombin. It is converted to thrombin by a prothrombin activator complex consisting of factor Xa, factor V, phospholipid, and calcium ions. Deficiency of prothrombin leads to hypoprothrombinemia.

D002846 Chromatography, Affinity A chromatographic technique that utilizes the ability of biological molecules, often ANTIBODIES, to bind to certain ligands specifically and reversibly. It is used in protein biochemistry.
