[Activation of key proenzymes of the blood coagulation system by the fibrin E fragment].

Plasminogen and prothrombin are key proenzymes of fibrinolytic and clotting system. It is known that they can be activated by indirect activators streptokinase and staphylocoagulase. In this paper it is shown that fibrin E fragment purified from DD-E complex induced catalytic activity in plasminogen and clotting activity in prothrombin.

[Plasminogen activation by antiplasminogen monoclonal antibody IV-1C. Properties and mechanism of reaction].

In review the results of investigation of plasminogen(Pg) activation by antiplasminogen monoclonal antibody IV-1c have been presented. Antigenic determinant of IV-1c was localized in Val709-Gly718 site of Pg protease domain. IV-1c completely inhibited the Pg activation by streptokinase, but increased the rate of Pg activation by t-PA and urokinase.
