Domain Interplay in the Urokinase Receptor
1 Sept 1996
Abstract excerpt
The urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) is a membrane protein comprised of three extracellular domains. In order to study the importance of this domain organization in the ligand-binding process of the receptor we subjected a recombinant, soluble uPAR (suPAR) to specific proteolytic cleavages leading to liberation of single domains. Treatment of the receptor with pepsin resulted in cleavage between...
