Abstract
The invention is concerned with novel polypeptides and processes for the synthesis thereof. It is concerned with compounds having the sequence EQU X-Gln-Gly-Gly-Y in which Y represents -Ser-Asn and X represents Ser-, Lys-Ser-, Ala-Lys-Ser-, Glx-Ala-Lys-Ser-; Glx representing Pyro-Glu or Gln; and when X represents Glx-Ala-Lys-Ser-, Y may in addition represent -Ser; as well as their derivatives comprising one or two modified amino acids, with the exception of the unmodified compound PyroGlu-Ala-Lys-Ser-Gln-Gly-Ser-Asn. These polypeptides are useful as medicines.
