Interaction of urokinase‐type plasminogenactivator (u‐PA) with its cellular receptor (u‐PAR) induces phosphorylation on tyrosine of a 38 kDa protein
[摘要] We demonstrate by immunoprecipitation that u-PAR is associated with a 38 kDa protein that is phosphorylated on tyrosine after u-PA treatment of cells. As tyrosine phosphorylation is the hallmark of many signal transduction pathways that promote growth and differentiation, these data suggest that u-PA, besides its role as a regulatory protease, might act as a para- or autocrine hormone.
