title: Possible identity of kallikrein binding protein with protein C inhibitor.
abstract: Protein C inhibitor (PCI) inhibits tissue kallikrein by forming stable 1:1 complexes (k1 = 2.3 x 10(4)M-1s-1). Heparin inhibits the tissue kallikrein/PCI-interaction and complex formation of 125I-tissue kallikrein in serum. 125I-tissue kallikrein complexes formed in plasma can be immunoprecipitated with monoclonal anti-PCI IgG suggesting that PCI might be identical to the kallikrein binding protein described previously (J. Chao et al. 1986, Biochem. J. 239, 325-331).
