Abstract

DNA encoding novel eglin mutants that differ from the natural eglins B and C by the replacement of amino acids in the region of the active center (amino acid 45) by other amino acids are provided. The mutants, which are produced by recombinant genetic engineering, have valuable pharmacological properties.
