Douglas P. Malinowski, J. Evan Sadler, and Earl W. Davie* abstract: A cDNA library was constructed in pBR322from bovine liver mRNA that was enriched for plasminogen mRNA by polysome immunoprecipitation. A32p-labeled singlestranded cDNA was then prepared from the enriched bovine mRNA and employed as a probe to screen the cDNA library. The screening was carried out by testing for clones that protect the hybridized 32P-labeled cDNA from SI nuclease digestion. The longest clone that was found was 581base pairs in length and coded for the C-terminal 107 amino acids of bovine plasminogen, a 3'noncoding region of 246 nucleotides and a poly (A) tail. Thebovine cDNA clone was then used as a probe to screen a human liver cDNA library of 18 000 recombinants. Six isolates were found to contain human plasminogen se-quences. The longest clone consisted of 1851 base pairsI^ asminogen is a glycoprotein (MT~ 92 000) that participates in the final stages of fibrinolysis (Robbins, 1982). During these reactions, plasminogen is converted to plasmin, a serine pro-tease that hydrolyzes fibrin clots. Plasminogen is converted to plasmin by a number of activators, including tissue plas-minogen activator, urokinase, or a complex of plasminogen and streptokinase. During the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin, a specific internal peptide bond between Arg-560 and Val-561 is cleaved in the single-chain precursor molecule. Plasmin is composed of two polypeptide chains held together by disulfide bonds. The serine protease portion of the enzyme is located in the carboxyl-terminal region of the protein (Groskopf et al., 1969; Robbins et al., 1973). This region shows considerableamino acid sequence homology with the serine proteases involved in blood coagulation, as well as those involved in other physiological processes such as the digestive enzymes of the pancreas (Davie et al., 1979).
