Role of Staphylokinase in the Acquisition of Plasmin(ogen)-Dependent Enzymatic Activity by Staphylococci

1 Jan 1996

Abstract excerpt

In this study, the role of the staphylococcal plasminogen activator, staphylokinase (SAK), was analyzed for its ability to mediate acquisition of cell-associated plasmin-like activity by staphylococci in the presence of a source of human plasminogen. A panel of staphylococcal strains isolated from humans was tested for the presence of the SAK gene, secretion of the plasminogen activator, and the ability to...
