Characterization of a recombinant fusion protein of the finger domain of tissue-type plasminogen activator with a truncated single chain urokinase-type plasminogen activator

Human recombinant single chain urokinase-type plasminogen activator (recombinant scu-PA) and a hybrid between human tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and scu-PA, obtained by ligation of cDNA fragments encoding the NH2-terminal region (amino acids 1-67) of t-PA and the COOH-terminal region (amino acids 136-411) of scu-PA, were expressed in a mammalian cell system. The proteins were purified from conditioned culture media containing 2% fetal calf serum by chromatography on zinc chelate-Sepharose, immunoadsorption chromatography on an insolubilized murine monoclonal antibody directed against urokinase, benzamidine-Sepharose chromatography, and Ultrogel AcA 44 gel filtration. Between 180 and 230 micrograms of the purified proteins were obtained per liter of conditioned medium, with a yield of approximately 18% and a purification factor of 720-1900. On sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis under reducing conditions, the proteins migrated as single bands with approximate Mr 50,000 for recombinant scu-PA and Mr 43,000 for the t-PA/scu-PA hybrid. Following conversion to urokinase with plasmin, the proteins had a specific amidolytic activity comparable to that of natural scu-PA. Both proteins activated plasminogen directly with Km = 0.53 and 1.4 microM and k2 = 0.0034 and 0.0027 s-1, respectively. Both proteins did not bind specifically to fibrin and had a comparable degree of fibrin selectivity as measured in a system composed of a whole human 125I-fibrin-labeled plasma clot suspended in human plasma. It is concluded that this chimeric protein, consisting of the NH2-terminal "finger-like" domain of t-PA and the COOH-terminal region of scu-PA, has very similar enzymatic properties as compared to scu-PA, but has not acquired the fibrin affinity of t-PA.     

Functional properties of the recombinant kringle-2 domain of tissue plasminogen activator produced in Escherichia coli

The kringle-2 domain (residues 176-262) of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant peptide, which concentrated in cytoplasmic inclusion bodies, was isolated, solubilized, chemically refolded, and purified by affinity chromatography on lysine-Sepharose to apparent homogeneity. [35S]Cysteine-methionine-labeled polypeptide was used to study the interactions of kringle-2 with lysine, fibrin, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1. The kringle-2 domain bound to lysine-Sepharose and to preformed fibrin with a Kd = 104 +/- 6.2 microM (0.86 +/- 0.012 binding site) and a Kd = 4.2 +/- 1.05 microM (0.80 +/- 0.081 binding site), respectively. Competition experiments and direct binding studies showed that the kringle-2 domain is required for the formation of the ternary t-PA-plasminogen-intact fibrin complex and that the association between the t-PA kringle-2 domain and fibrin does not require plasmin degradation of fibrin and exposure of new COOH-terminal lysine residues. We also observed that kringle-2 forms a complex with highly purified guanidine-activated plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, dissociable by 0.2 M epsilon-aminocaproic acid. The kringle-2 polypeptide significantly inhibited tissue plasminogen activator/plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 interaction. The kringle-2 domain bound to plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in a specific and saturable manner with a Kd = 0.51 +/- 0.055 microM (0.35 +/- 0.026 binding site). Therefore, the t-PA kringle-2 domain is important for the interaction of t-PA not only with fibrin, but also with plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and thus represents a key structure in the regulation of fibrinolysis.     

Purification of an active plasminogen activator inhibitor immunologically related to the endothelial type plasminogen activator inhibitor from the conditioned media of a human melanoma cell line

24 established melanoma cell cultures were screened for their secretion of plasminogen activators and plasminogen activator inhibitors into the culture medium by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by conventional and reverse fibrin autography. Among the cell lines investigated, 22 cell lines predominantly secreting tissue type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and four cell lines additionally secreting urokinase were found. The conditioned media of two cell lines (KRFM and MJZJ) were found to contain plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI) activity at a Mr position of approximately 50,000. The PAI of one of the two melanoma cell (MJZJ)-conditioned media found to contain PAI activity was purified to apparent homogeneity employing concanavalin A-Sepharose chromatography, gel filtration on Sephadex G-150, chromatography on Affi-Gel blue, and affinity chromatography on a Sepharose 4B immobilized monoclonal anti-t-PA IgG column. The purified melanoma PAI was found to be a single chain protein, acid stable, immunologically related to the endothelial derived PAI. In contrast to endothelial PAI, melanoma PAI presented itself in the conditioned media of the melanoma cells and in the purified preparation to an appreciable extent in its active form.     

Inactivation of tissue plasminogen activator in plasma. Demonstration of a complex with a new rapid inhibitor

A new specific and sensitive method for determination of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) in plasma samples has been used to demonstrate the presence of a fast inhibitor to t-PA in plasma. By adding [35S]Met internally labeled t-PA (Mr approximately 70,000) to plasma, we were able to demonstrate the rapid formation of a stable complex with an apparent molecular weight of about 115,000 as estimated by gel filtration. The complex was partially purified by immunoadsorbtion chromatography on insolubilized antibodies against porcine t-PA, and a molecular weight of about 120,000 was found by dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. From the apparent molecular weight of the complex (120,000) and the molecular weight of t-PA (70,000), a molecular weight of about 50,000 would be expected for the inhibitor. However, gel filtration of inhibitor-rich plasma resulted in the appearance of a symmetrical peak of t-PA inhibitory activity with an apparent molecular weight of about 205,000. The reason for this discrepancy is not known, but several different models are possible.     

Rapid and high-yield purification of porcine heart tissue-type plasminogen activator by heparin-sepharose choromatography

A rapid and high-yield procedure for the purification of single polypeptide tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) from porcine heart tissue has been developed. Delipidated heart tissue was extracted with 0.45 M potassium acetate. The extract was fractionated with ammonium sulfate and purified by a combination of affinity chromatography on heparin-Sepharose CL-6B and gel filtration on Toyopearl HW-55S. The final product had a specific activity of 220,000 IU/mg protein and gave a single protein band (apparent molecular weight; 67,000) in SDS-polyacrylamide gels in the presence or absence of a reducing agent. The increase in specific activity was 3,200-fold, most of which was achieved in the step of heparin-Sepharose chromatography. The yield calculated from the active ammonium sulfate precipitate was about 90% and 500 micrograms or more of the purified enzyme was obtained from 1 kg wet tissue. This procedure may also be useful for the large-scale production of highly purified t-PA from other tissues or tissue culture cells.     

Characterization of functional domains in human tissue-type plasminogen activator with the use of monoclonal antibodies

Two murine monoclonal antibodies (MA-2G6 and MA-1C8), secreted by hybridomas obtained by fusion of myeloma cells with spleen cells from mice immunized with human tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), inhibited the activity of t-PA on fibrin plates. MA-2G6 inhibited the amidolytic activity of t-PA and did not react with t-PA in which the active-site serine was blocked with diisopropylfluorophosphate nor with t-PA in which the active-site histidine was alkylated by reaction with D-Ile-Pro-Arg-CH2Cl. This indicated that MA-2G6 is directed against an epitope covering the active site of t-PA. MA-1C8 did not inhibit the amidolytic activity of t-PA, but abolished both the binding of t-PA to fibrin and the stimulatory effect of fibrin on the activation of plasminogen by t-PA. Thus MA-1C8 is directed against an epitope which covers the fibrin-binding site of t-PA. The A and B chains of partially reduced two-chain t-PA were separated by immunoadsorption on immobilized MA-1C8 and MA-2G6. The purified B chain reacted with MA-2G6 but not with MA-1C8 and activated plasminogen following Michaelis-Menten kinetics with kinetic constants similar to those of intact t-PA (Km = 100 microM and kcat = 0.02 s-1). However, fibrin or CNBr-digested fibrinogen did not stimulate the activation of plasminogen by the B chain. The purified A chain reacted with MA-1C8 but not with MA-2G6. It bound to fibrin with an affinity similar to that of intact t-PA but did not activate plasminogen. It is concluded that the active center of t-PA is located in the B chain and the fibrin-binding site in the A-chain. Both functional domains are required for the regulation by fibrin of the t-PA-mediated activation of plasminogen.     

Structure-function analysis with tissue-type plasminogen activator. Effect of deletion of NH2-terminal domains on its biochemical and biological properties

Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) is a mosaic protein containing several distinct structural domains attached to the serine protease catalytic unit present at its COOH terminus. To investigate structure-function relationships in t-PA, we deleted the NH2-terminal domains, finger and epidermal growth factor, by genetic engineering. The genes for the parent and mutant t-PA were expressed in a bovine papilloma virus-dependent mammalian cell system. The secreted proteins were purified to homogeneity. The mutant protein was processed to the expected size of about 60 kDa compared to approximately 68 kDa for the parent t-PA, as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and fibrin autography. While the mutant t-PA had amidolytic activity comparable to native t-PA, it did not bind appreciably to fibrin. Consequently, fibrin-dependent enzymic activity, i.e. plasminogen activation in the presence of soluble fibrin and fibrinolysis were lower than with native recombinant t-PA. The effect of deletion of NH2-terminal domains on the plasma half-life (t1/2) was investigated by injecting native and mutant t-PA into mice. While the majority of the t-PA disappeared initially with a t1/2 of about 2 min, mutant t-PA cleared at a much slower rate with t1/2 of about 50 min. These findings suggest that the NH2-terminal domains of t-PA not only determine its specificity for binding to fibrin but also mediate its clearance from plasma in vivo. Furthermore, the catalytic unit in t-PA seems to function autonomously.     

Isolation and functional characterization of the heavy and light chains of human tissue-type plasminogen activator

Two-chain tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), which consists of a heavy chain (Mr congruent to 38,000) and a light chain (Mr congruent to 31,000) connected by a disulfide bridge, was reduced with 2-mercaptoethanol and then air-reoxidized at a low protein concentration and carboxamidomethylated. The two chains were separated by means of zinc chelate-agarose, which was found to bind the light chain selectively. The light chain was fully active on the tripeptide substrate H-D-isoleucyl-L-prolyl-L-arginine p-nitroanilide (S-2288) and partially active on plasminogen. The plasminogen activator activity of the light chain was, in contrast to that of two-chain t-PA, not stimulated by fibrin or fibrinogen fragments. Fibrin-agarose chromatography of radiolabeled chains showed that only the heavy chain bound to fibrin. These results indicate that the active site-containing light chain in t-PA needs the heavy chain for fibrin stimulation of its plasminogen activator activity.
