additional information the active form of uPA is bound to its high affinity receptor on the cell surface, where specific inhibitors modulate its enzymatic activity, such inhibitors also regulate the cell surface levels of uPA by triggering the internalization of the uPA-receptor-inhibitor complex via endocytosis Homo sapiens

Posttranslational Modification

Posttranslational Modification Comment Organism
proteolytic modification the enzyme is produced as inactive pro-enzyme, which undergoes several post-translational modifications, the zymogen binds its own receptor uPAR and is cleaved by neighboring, membrane-bound plasmin or other proteases at K158-K159 to produce the active two-chain form held together by a single disulfide bond, further cleavage of pro-uPA at K135-K136 releases the amino-terminal fragment of uPA, overview Homo sapiens
