Inhibition of the plasminogen activator urokinase by alpha-tocopherol
Abstract:
alpha-Tocopherol (vitamin E) inhibited the activity of urokinase on fibrin plates and on the amidolytic substrate S-2444 in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Inhibition was not removed by dialysis. In the presence of dilutions of plasma, protein-containing fractions of gel-filtered plasma, or bovine serum albumin, the inhibition of urokinase by alpha-tocopherol was abolished. Urokinase activity was not inhibited by phytol, menadione or hydroquinone.

Allosteric Proteins-ATCase
Aspartate transcarbamoylase (ATCase) is a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the condensation of L-aspartate and carbamoyl phosphate to N-carbamoyl-L-aspartate. This reaction is the first step in pyrimidine biosynthesis. UTP and CTP, the end products of the pyrimidine synthesis pathway,...
