staphylokinase

The virulence factor staphylokinase, although not an enzyme, triggers an autocatalytic cleavage in plasminogen that converts it into plasmin. Staphylokinase also contributes to virulence by binding to alpha-defensins involved in host defense, rendering them ineffective. The sak gene, encoding staphylokinase, is found in prophage regions of lysogenic strains of Staphyloccus.
