Popis: Stachybotrydial, a triprenyl phenol metabolite from a fungus, has a plasminogen modulator activity selective to Glu-plasminogen. Stachybotrydial enhanced fibrin binding and activation of Glu-plasminogen (2- to 4-fold enhancement at 60� 120 m M) but not of Lys-plasminogen. Approximately 1.2� 1.6 moles of ( 3 H)stachybotrydial bound to Glu-plasminogen to exert such effects. The selective modulation of the Glu- plasminogen function by stachybotrydial may be related to alteration of its conformational status.
