The amino acid sequence of the single polypaptide chain of bovine plasminogen (786 residues, Mr 88092) was determined. Cleavage with CNBr yielded 13 fragments of which six originated from cleavage sites different from human plasminogen. Digestion with elastase gave three major fragments: kringles (1+2+3) and kringle 4, both with intact lysine binding sites, and mini-plasminogen. Subfragmentation was achieved mainly with 2-(2-nitrophenylsulfenyl)-3-methyl-3′-bromoindolenine (BNPS-skatole), Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease and trypsin. The sequences of fragments which were determined by automated Edman degradation, were aligned with overlapping sequences, or, in a few instances, by homology with the known sequence of human plasminogen. Sequence comparison with the human protein showed varying degrees of homology in the different functional and structural domains. The overall identity (78%) is practically the same as that found in those regions corresponding to the heavy (79%) and the light chain (80%) of plasmin. The average degree of identity among the kringles is 83%. Outside the kringle structures the extent of identity decreases, to 65% in the N-terminal region and to about 50% in the connecting strands between the kringles except for the strand between kringles 2 and 3, where only one out of 12 residues is exchanged. The results reported show that bovine plasminogen apparently contains the same structural and functional domains as human plasminogen. Bovine plasminogen also contains two carbohydrate moieties, The only partially substituted N-glycosidic site, Asn289, corresponds to partially glycosylated Asn288 in human plasminogen, whereas the O-glycosidic site of the human sequence, Thr345, is shifted to Ser339 in bovine plasminogen.
