Term Name: venom-mediated plasminogen activation
Synonyms: envenomation resulting in plasminogen activation in another organism, envenomation resulting in plasminogen activation in other organism
Definition: A process in which an organism initiates, promotes, or enhances the activation of plasminogen into plasmin in another organism via the action of a venom. This process includes cleavage at an internal Arg-Val site to form an N-terminal A-chain and C-terminal B-chain held together by a disulfide bond, and can include further proteolytic cleavage events to remove the preactivation peptide.
