EC 3.4.21.34     
Accepted name: plasma kallikrein
Reaction: Selective cleavage of some Arg┼ and Lys┼ bonds, including Lys┼Arg and Arg┼Ser in (human) kininogen to release bradykinin
Other name(s): serum kallikrein; kininogenin; kallikrein I; kallikrein II; kininogenase; kallikrein; callicrein; glumorin; padreatin; padutin; kallidinogenase; bradykininogenase; panceatic kallikrein; onokrein P; dilminal D; depot-Padutin; urokallikrein; urinary kallikrein
Comments: Formed from plasma prokallikrein (Fletcher factor) by factor XIIa. Activates coagulation factors XII, VII and plasminogen. Selective for Arg > Lys in P1, in small molecule substrates.
