ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to an Arg-Serpin human plasminogen activator inhibitor designated PAI-2. This protein is prepared via recombinant DNA means. The invention also includes other serpins which can be made by amino acid substitutions or deletions in conserved regions of PAI-1 and PAI-2, as shown in FIG. 4. The proteins of the invention can be used to inhibit, or at least modulate, human plasminogen activator activity in a variety of physiological conditions, e.g., fibrinolysis, tumor metastasis, and tumor growth.
