摘要
The present invention provides a co-activator for prekallikrein and a prekallikrein-activating method in the absence of FXIIa by using the co-activator which is selected from the group consisting of heat shock protein 90, a phosphate ion and mixtures thereof. The prekallikrein co-activator of the present invention represents a part of an in vitro system for activating prekallikrein, the system comprising said activator as well as a high-molecular weight kininogen and zinc ion. The present invention also comprises a method for activating prekallikrein in the presence of said prekallikrein activator to produce kallikrein, the method being useful in a method for screening the activity of a substance to act as a modulator of the production of kallikrein in the absence of FXIIa. The method of the present invention for activating prekallikrein in the absence of FXIIa comprises activating prekallikrein by mixing prekallikrein with the prekallikrein co-activator, a composition comprising high molecular weight kininogen, and zinc ions. A method for screening the activity of a test substance for the production of kallikrein comprises activating prekallikrein, and determining quantitatively the kallikrein produced in said reaction. In the activity measuring method of the present invention, the activity (a promoting or inhibiting ability) of the tested substance or drug against the production of kallikrein in the absence of FXIIa can be easily, simply, reliably, quickly and precisely measured.
