Abstract excerpt
Fibrinolysis is regulated in part by the interaction of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1). Previous investigations suggest that three specific arginine residues, Arg-298, Arg-299, and Arg-304 of t-PA, play a critical role in this important regulatory interaction. Our earlier studies have demonstrated that conversion of any of these three residues to a...
