Protein Coding Gene : Plau plasminogen activator, urokinase

Primary Identifier  MGI:97611 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  14 NCBI Gene Number  18792
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.3.0)

Predicted to enable serine-type endopeptidase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including fibrinolysis; response to hypoxia; and smooth muscle cell migration. Part of serine-type endopeptidase complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; integumental system; and trophectoderm. Used to study Alzheimer's disease; hepatocellular carcinoma; and steatotic liver disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (multiple); Quebec platelet disorder; end stage renal disease; lung disease (multiple); and mitral valve prolapse. Orthologous to human PLAU (plasminogen activator, urokinase).
PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes show occasional fibrin deposits in non-healing ulcerations and reduced neointima formation after arterial injury. They are susceptible to thrombosis after traumatic or inflammatory challenge and appear to be immunologically hyporesponsive displaying characteristics of functional anergy.
