SummaryPapain treatment of human urinary trypsin inhibitor (UTI67; mol. wt. 43,000 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, specific activity 1,897 U/mg protein) produced four new protease inhibitors, which were highly purified by gel chromatography on Sephadex G-100 and isoelectric focusing. The purified inhibitors (UTI26, UTI9-I, UTI9-II, and UTI9-III) were shown to be homogeneous by polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis, and had apparent molecular weights of 26,000, 9,000, 9,000, and 9,800, respectively, by sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. During enzymatic degradation of UTI67, the amino acid compositions changed to more basic, and the isoelectric point increased from pH 2.0 (UTI67) to pHs 4.4, 5.2, 6.6, and 8.3 (UTI26, UTI9-I, UTI9-II, and UTI9-III), respectively. Both the parent and degraded inhibitors had anti-plasmin activity as well as antitrypsin and anti-chymotrypsin activities. Much higher anti-plasmin/anti-trypsin and anti-plasmin/anti-chymotrypsin activities were observed in the degraded inhibitors than in the parent UTI67. They competitively inhibited human plasmin with Ki values of 1.13 X 10-7 - 2.12 X 10-6 M (H-D-Val-Leu-Lys-pNA substrate). The reactions were very fast and the active site of the inhibitors to plasmin was thought to be different from that to trypsin or chymotrypsin.

Factor X Activation

In a system of washed human platelets, Ca2+and purified human factors X anc II, a sufficient amount of thrombin is generated in about 10 minutes to aggregate the platelets. This thrombin is formed through the activation of FX by the platelets. In a system with either FX or FII present, no aggregation occurs. In addition no aggregation is observed when hirudin, a specific thrombin inhibitor, or when soybean trypsin inhibitor, which inhibits factor Xa, are added to the mixture. The formation of factor Xa can be monitored indirectly through the generation of thrombin, in the presence of an excess of prothrombin, using a thrombin sensitive chromogenic substrate. When washed platelets are incubated with FX alone for 10 minutes, no aggregation occurs and after the addition of prothrombin aggregation starts within 6 minutes. These findings confirm that washed platelets possess a factor X activating property. The generation of FXa proceeds in the absence of added Ca2+, whereas in the presence of Ca2+factor Xa activity reaches a maximum in 3 minutes, whereafter the activity progressively decreases. This may be due to the binding of Xa to the platelets in the presence of calcium ions.
