Abstract

Treatment of guinea pig or human C2 with trypsin in the presence of EAC4 leads to the formation of EAC
Figure 1
. The kinetics of EAC
Figure 2
generation, the nature of the C2 dose response curve and the nature of the decay curve of SA
Figure 3
all indicated that EAC
Figure 4
formed by the action of trypsin on C2 are not distinguishable from EAC
Figure 5
generated by the interaction of EAC14 and C2. The data support the hypothesis that C1 is a trypsin-like enzyme.
