    Abstract: Protein F (PF) is a surface plasminogen (Plg) receptor on the nontypeable Haemophilus influenza (NTHi). Plg via its lysine binding sites (LBS) can bind to PF. Apolipoprotein(a) [Apo(a)] is one component of Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)]. It has Kringle (K) domains, which contain LBS and has a high homology with Plg. Therefore, we speculated that Lp(a) migh...
