Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information activation of a low concentration of plasminogen by cell-associated plasminogen activators produces sufficient active plasmin to rapidly and efficiently process pro-brain-derived neurotrophic factor in the pericellular environment Homo sapiens

Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine processing of pro-brain-derived neurotrophic factor by plasmin stimulates neurite outgrowth on TrkB-transfected PC-12 cells to a similar extent than mature wild-type brain-derived neurotrophic factor Homo sapiens

pro-brain-derived neurotrophic factor + H2O plasmin is a specific and efficient activator of pro-brain-derived neurotrophic factor. The pro-form is rapidly processed to an 18 kDa fragment at a low concentration of plasmin. This C-terminal fragment is equivalent in size to the furin-processed, mature form of wild-type brain-derived neurotrophic factor. The proteolytic cleavage site is Arg125-Val126, within the consensus furin-cleavage motif Homo sapiens ?
