Nucleic acids encoding polypeptide inhibitors of human plasmin derived from the Kunitz domains

摘要

This invention features novel proteins that are homologous to the first Kunitz domain (K1) of lipoprotein-associated coagulation inhibitor (LACI), and are capable of inhibiting plasmin and nucleic acids encoding these proteins. The invention also features the use of such proteins in therapeutic, diagnostic, and clinical methods.
