Isolation, purification, and separation of the complex preparation of extracellular proteinases with fibrinolytic and anticoagulant properties from Aspergillus ochraceus 513]

The extracellular proteinase complex of the microscopic fungus Aspergillus ochraceus 513 was isolated, purified, and separated by affinity chromatography on bacillichin-silochrom and subsequent column chromatography on DEAE-Toyopearl 650 M. The extracellular enzyme of the protein C activator type had a molecular mass of 36.5 kDa and activity close to that of the Agkistrodon snake venom protein C activator. The fibrinolytic and anticoagulant activities of the enzyme were investigated.
