-This is a sample scene created with SAT to <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/1">color</scene> by Group, and another to make <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/2">a transparent representation</scene> of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
+The binding of uPAR and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) is mediated by hydrophobic numerous interactions. <scene name='10/1041521/Cv/2'>In particular the interactions between uPA residue Trp30 and uPAR numerous hydrophobic residues</scene><ref>PMID:16979660</ref>.
