Abstract
A method for the production of a polypeptide, the method comprising culturing, under conditions which allow for the expression of DNA encoding SEQ ID NO:2 in an eukaryotic host cell, wherein the DNA is in vector pPHOEBE-40-7, and optionally isolating the polypeptide from the culture, is described. A polypeptide obtained by such method and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the polypeptide also are described. A composition for diagnosing anemia comprising such polypeptide and a method of treating anemia caused by lack of erythropoietin also are described.
