SummaryRecombinant chimaeric molecules between tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and single chain urokinase-type plasminogen activator (scu-PA) or two chain urokinase-type plasminogen activator (tcu-PA) have intact enzymatic properties of scu-PA or tcu-PA towards natural and synthetic substrates (Nelles et al., J Biol Chem 1987; 262: 10855-10862). In the present study, we have compared the reactivity with inhibitors of both the single chain and two chain variants of recombinant u-PA and two recombinant chimaeric molecules between t-PA and scu-PA (t-PA/u-PA-s: amino acids 1-263 of t-PA and 144-411 of u-PA; t-PA/u-PA-e: amino acids 1-274 of t-PA and 138-411 of u-PA). Incubation with human plasma in the absence of a fibrin clot for 3 h at 37° C at equipotent concentrations (50% clot lysis in 2 h), resulted in significant fibrinogen breakdown (to about 40% of the normal value) for all two chain molecules, but not for their single chain counterparts. Preincubation of the plasminogen activators with plasma for 3 h at 37° C, resulted in complete inhibition of the fibrinolytic potency of the two chain molecules but did not alter the potency of the single chain molecules. Inhibition of the two chain molecules occurred with a t½ of approximately 45 min. The two chain variants were inhibited by the synthetic urokinase inhibitor Glu-Gly-Arg-CH2CCl with apparent second-order rate constants of 8,000-10,000 M−1s−1, by purified α2-antiplasmin with second-order rate constants of about 300 M−1s−1, and by plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) with second-order rate constants of approximately 2 × 107 M−1s−1.It is concluded that the reactivity of single chain and two chain forms of t-PA/u-PA chimaers with inhibitors is very similar to that of the single and two chain forms of intact u-PA.

SummaryHeat inactivation of thrombin at 54° C followed first order kinetics with a rate constant of 1.0 min−1 approximately. Addition of heparin resulted in protection against thermal denaturation and, at the same time, rendered denaturation kinetics more complex. Analysis of the biphasic curve of heat inactivation in the presence of heparin revealed that the rate constants of the second phase changed systematically with heparin concentrations. Namely, at 4.5 × 10−6M, 9 × 10−6M, 1.8 × 10−5M and 3.6 × 10−5M heparin concentrations, the rate constants were 0.27 min−1, 0.17 min−1, 0.11 min−1 and 0.06 min−1, respectively.Sulfate as well as phosphate ions displayed also enzyme protection against heat inactivation, however, the same effect was obtained already at a heparin concentration, lower by three orders of magnitude.The kinetics of enzyme denaturation was not affected by calcium ions, whereas in the presence of heparin the inactivation rate of thrombin changed, i. e. calcium ions abolished the biphasic character of time course of thermal denaturation.Thus, the data suggest that calcium ions contribute to the effect of heparin on thrombin.
