Proteolytic specificity of plasmin toward adhesive proteins

Russian Journal of Bioorganic Chemistry Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

We showed that plasmin specifically hydrolyzes proteins participating in cell adhesion (fibronectin, vitronectin, and laminin) and does not affect nonadhesive proteins, such as albumin, ovalbumin, and alkaline phosphatase. These and some earlier results allow us to speak of the specific antiadhesive activity of plasmin, which significantly extends the concepts regarding the functional importance of this protein and indicates that it directly participates in the regulation of cell adhesion, the remodeling of the extracellular matrix, and, therefore, in cell migration.
