Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator FDA Link

A proteolytic enzyme that converts PLASMINOGEN to FIBRINOLYSIN where the preferential cleavage is between ARGININE and VALINE. It was isolated originally from human URINE, but is found in most tissues of most VERTEBRATES.

Also Known As:

Urokinase; Urokinase Type Plasminogen Activator; U-PA; U-Plasminogen Activator; Abbokinase; Kidney Plasminogen Activator; Renokinase; Single-Chain Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator; Single Chain Urokinase Type Plasminogen Activator; U Plasminogen Activator; Plasminogen Activator, Urokinase-Type; Urinary Plasminogen Activator
