The overall mechanism of interaction with proteinases of α1-inhibitor3, a plasma proteinase inhibitor so far specific to the rat, has been shown to be closely similar to that described for α-macroglobulins. This mechanism includes: (i) the cleavage of at least one susceptible peptidic bond which leads to structural changes in the molecule, (ii) The cleavage of a putative thiol ester bond in another site of the molecule which permits the covalent linkage of the enzyme. Moreover, fragmentation of α1-inhibitor3upon heating as observed for α-macroglobulin quarter subunits has been demonstrated. The question is raised of the presence of such a molecule in rat plasma in addition to two α-macroglobulin species, all of these proteinase inhibitors being antigenically unrelated.α1Inhibitor3α.-MacroglobulinRat plasmaThiol esterHeat fragmentation
