F1-G MODULE PAIR RESIDUES 1-91 (C83S) OF TISSUE-TYPE PLASMINOGEN ACTIVATOR (T-PA) (NMR, 298K, PH2.95, REPRESENTATIVE STRUCTURE)

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 7582899

Disease

[TPA_HUMAN] Note=Increased activity of TPA results in increased fibrinolysis of fibrin blood clots that is associated with excessive bleeding. Defective release of TPA results in hypofibrinolysis that can lead to thrombosis or embolism.

Function

[TPA_HUMAN] Converts the abundant, but inactive, zymogen plasminogen to plasmin by hydrolyzing a single Arg-Val bond in plasminogen. By controlling plasmin-mediated proteolysis, it plays an important role in tissue remodeling and degradation, in cell migration and many other physiopathological events. Plays a direct role in facilitating neuronal migration.
