The interaction of streptococcal enolase with canine plasminogen: the role of surfaces in complex formation.
Belts The enolase from Streptococcus pyogenes (Str enolase F137L/E363G) is a homo-octamer shaped like a donut.Plasminogen (Pgn) is a monomeric protein composed of seven discrete separated domains organized into a lock washer.The enolase is known to bind Pgn.In past work we searched for conditions in which the two proteins would bind to one another.
