Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 5329
Gene name Plasminogen activator, urokinase receptor
Gene symbol PLAUR
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CD87U-PARUPARURKR
Chromosome 19
Chromosome location 19q13.31
Summary This gene encodes the receptor for urokinase plasminogen activator and, given its role in localizing and promoting plasmin formation, likely influences many normal and pathological processes related to cell-surface plasminogen activation and localized deg
