Proteolytic Enzymes of Mycelial Fungi with Plasmin-Like and Plasminogen-Activator Activity
The potential of microscopic fungi for the secretion of proteolytic enzymes for medical purposes, namely proteinases with thrombolytic, fibrinolytic and plasminogen activator activity, is considered. The data on the most well-known preparations of such proteinases from the time of obtaining the first one (1959) to the present are analyzed and summarized. The key properties of such enzymes and preparations are described, indicating the possibility of their use in medicine.
