Kininogen Proteins and Enzymes

Kininogen, also known as 2-thiol proteinase inhibitor, is a multi-functional protein. The high molecule weight (HMW) form of kininogen is synthesized as a precursor protein (amino acid residues 1 to 644). The mature chain (residues 19 to 644) is further processed into the heavy chain (residues 19 to 380) and the light chain (residues 390 to 644) wi...
