Lysine side chains induce conformational changes in plasminogen (Pg) that regulate the process of fibrinolysis or blood clot dissolution. A lysine side-chain mimic, epsilon amino caproic acid (EACA), enhances the activation of Pg by urinary-type and tissue-type Pg activators but

Binding of plasmin(ogen) to rat C6 glioma cells is saturable and kringle-domain dependent. This interaction was studied as a model of plasmin(ogen) receptor interactions in nucleated mammalian cells. Apparent 125I-plasmin dissociation from C6 cell binding sites was slow; however, the
