TRANSGENIC BARLEY SH-POLYPEPTIDE-9

Transgenic Barley sh-Polypeptide-9 is a single chain recombinant human peptide, produced by barley after insertion of a copy of a human gene into its DNA. The starting gene is synthesized to be identical to the human gene which codes for Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A. It contains a maximum of 53 amino acids, which may contain disulfide bonds and/or glycosylation. The protein consists of the proper sequence of the 20 standard amino acids.
