Protein Domain : Plasminogen-binding protein PgbA, N-terminal IPR029276

Type	Domain
Description	This entry represents the N-terminal domain of the bacterial proteins (PgbA) that bind plasminogen. This activity was identified in In Helicobacter pylori where it is thought to contribute to the virulence of this bacterium. Both PgbA and PgbB are surface-exposed proteins that mediate binding to plasminogen such that it can be converted into plasmin in the presence of a Pg activator [ ].
Short Name	PgbA_N
