Biological function summary
Something particularly interesting about urokinase is its role in converting plasminogen to plasmin a critical enzyme in the process of fibrinolysis. Moreover it is part of a larger enzymatic complex involving the urokinase receptor (uPAR) which localizes plasminogen activation to cell surfaces. This complex mediates extracellular matrix degradation aiding in important cellular processes like tissue remodeling and wound healing.
Pathways
Urokinase plays a critical role in the fibrinolytic pathway which involves the breakdown of blood clots. It also interacts with the extracellular matrix pathway by activating plasminogen which can degrade matrix components. In these pathways urokinase closely interacts with proteins such as plasmin and its inhibitor plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) which regulate the activity and localization of proteolytic events.

Form
Liquid
General info
Function
Specifically cleaves the zymogen plasminogen to form the active enzyme plasmin.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the peptidase S1 family.
Post-translational modifications
Produced as an inactive single-chain protein (pro-uPA or sc-uPA), is processed into the active disulfide-linked two-chain form of PLAU/uPA by a proteolytic event mediated, at least, by TMPRSS4.
