Function | Plasmin dissolves the fibrin of blood clots and acts as a proteolytic factor in a variety of other processes including embryonic development, tissue remodeling, tumor invasion, and inflammation. In ovulation, weakens the walls of the Graafian follicle. It activates the urokinase-type plasminogen activator, collagenases and several complement zymogens, such as C1 and C5. Cleavage of fibronectin and laminin leads to cell detachment and apoptosis. Also cleaves fibrin, thrombospondin and von Willebrand factor. Its role in tissue remodeling and tumor invasion may be modulated by CSPG4. Binds to cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14699093}. |
Subcellular Location | Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10077593, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14699093}. Note=Locates to the cell surface where it is proteolytically cleaved to produce the active plasmin. Interaction with HRG tethers it to the cell surface. |
Tissue Specificity | Present in plasma and many other extracellular fluids. It is synthesized in the liver. |
Top Pathways | Complement and coagulation cascades, Staphylococcus aureus infection, Influenza A, Neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction |
