Alpha 2-antiplasmin (or α₂-antiplasmin or plasmin inhibitor) is a serine protease inhibitor (serpin) responsible for inactivating plasmin.^[5] Plasmin is an important enzyme that participates in fibrinolysis and degradation of various other proteins. This protein is encoded by the SERPINF2 gene.^[6]

Fibrinolysis (simplified). Blue arrows denote stimulation, and red arrows inhibition.
