<p>Of the novel plasminogen activators, one is a modified urokinase that is altered to make it less susceptible to forming two chain-urokinase and to increase the fibrin specificity of urokinase. Also among the novel plasminogen activators are fibrinolytic proteins comprised of at least one domain capable of interacting with fibrin and the protease domain of urokinase. The domain capable of interacting with fibrin may have an amino acid sequence substantially the same as those of kringle-2 of t-PA, kringle-1 and/or -4 of plasminogen and the finger domain of t-PA. The protease domain may have an amino acid sequence substantially the same as that of 30 Kd urokinase. DNA sequences encoding the novel plasminogen activators, expression vectors and expression systems therefor are also disclosed and claimed.</p> |
