6AEX - PubMed Abstract: 
The urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) is a cell surface receptor that is capable of binding to a range of extracellular proteins and triggering a series of proteolytic and signaling events. Previous structural studies of uPAR with its ligands uPA and vitronectin revealed that its three domains (DI, DII, and DIII) form a large hydrophobic cavity to accommodate uPA ...
