The interaction between type 1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) and fragments of vitronectin (Vn) was investigated. The PAI-1-binding domain was not destroyed when Vn was cleaved by treatment with either acid or CNBr. Acid-cleaved Vn was fractionated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and analyzed by PAI-1 ligand binding. The smallest fragment (Mr 40,000) that retained PAI-1 binding function was sequenced and shown to contain the NH2 terminus of the molecule. Further cleavage of this fragment by treatment with CNBr generated a Mr 35,000 fragment (Pro52-Asp239) that did not interact with PAI-1, and a Mr 6,000 NH2-terminal fragment (Asp1-Met51) that spanned the somatomedin B domain and contained the RGD (cell binding) sequence. The purified Mr 6,000 fragment competed with immobilized Vn for PAI-1 binding, and formed complexes with activated PAI-1. These complexes could be immunoprecipitated by antibodies to PAI-1. Synthetic peptides containing the RGD sequence had no effect on the binding of this fragment to PAI-1. These results suggest that the cell-binding and PAI-1 binding sequences of Vn occupy distinct regions in the NH2-terminal somatomedin B domain of the molecule.
