Plasminogen (PLG) is a circulating zymogen that is converted to the active enzyme plasmin by cleavage of the peptide bond between arg560 and val561, which is mediated by urokinase (PLAU; MIM 191840) and tissue plasminogen activator (PLAT; MIM 173370). The main function of plasmin is to dissolve fibrin (see, e.g., FGA, MIM 134820) clots. Plasmin, like trypsin, belongs to the family of serine proteinases (Miyata et al., 1982 [PubMed 6216475]; Forsgren et al., 1987 [PubMed 3030813]).[supplied by OMIM]
