Abstract
A cDNA coding for human plasminogen activator inhibitor-2 (PAI-2) was transfered into the genome of Autographa californica nuclear polyhedro sis virus adjacent to the polyhedrin promoter. Cells infected with rec ombinant virus synthesized a 43-kDa PAI-2 protein, the majority of whi ch was secreted. The recombinant PAI-2 was identical to native PAI-2 p urified from human placenta with respect to interaction with polyclona l antibody and inhibition of urokinase-type plasminogen activator.
