Function
Plasmin dissolves the fibrin of blood clots and acts as a proteolytic factor in a variety of other processes including embryonic development, tissue remodeling, tumor invasion, and inflammation. In ovulation, weakens the walls of the Graafian follicle. It activates the urokinase-type plasminogen activator, collagenases and several complement zymogens, such as C1 and C5 Cleavage of fibronectin and laminin leads to cell detachment and apoptosis. Also cleaves fibrin, thrombospondin and von Willebrand factor. Its role in tissue remodeling and tumor invasion may be modulated by CSPG4. Binds to cells
Tissue Specificity
Present in plasma and many other extracellular fluids. It is synthesized in the liver
Cellular Localization
Secreted. Note=Locates to the cell surface where it is proteolytically cleaved to produce the active plasmin Interaction with HRG tethers it to the cell surface
Western blot analysis of PLG Antibody (N-term) in NCI-H460 cell line lysates (35ug/lane). PLG (arrow) was detected using the purified Pab.
