Kinetics of the inhibition by plasminogen activator inhibitor 2 of urokinase isolated from human urine and recombinant microorganisms. Further evidence for correct tertiary structure of recombinant urokinase.
The specific plasminogen activator inhibitor 2 (PAI-2) from human placenta was used to compare the kinetics of inactivation of recombinant urokinase and urokinase from human urine. The inactivation of the enzymes proceeded with identical second order rate constants. The result is considered a further indication of corresponding 3-dimensional structures of urokinases from human urine and of recombinant origin.
