R-(METHIONYL SH-POLYPEPTIDE-1 DECAPEPTIDE-40)

r-(Methionyl sh-Polypeptide-1 Decapeptide-40) is is a single chain recombinant peptide, produced by fermentation in E. coli. The starting gene is synthesized by the fusion of the genes from sh-Polypeptide-1 and Decapeptide-40 with the initiation code for methionine. The fusion peptide contains 471 amino acids which may contain disulfide bonds and/or glycosylation, and consists of the proper sequence of the 20 standard amino acids.
