Streptokinase is a single-chain polypeptide derived from β-hemolytic Streptococcus cultures. After intravenous (IV) administration, streptokinase binds to plasminogen, and the resulting streptokinase–plasminogen enzymatic complex converts plasminogen to plasmin.

Streptokinase enzyme is produced by the bacterium Streptococcus. It is modified by genetic engineering and is used as a clot buster for removing clots from the blood vessels of patients who have suffered from myocardial infarction.
