Abstract

The invention relates to a synthetic, biologically active molecule for fixing an active ingredient to the virus protein 1 (VP1) of the polyoma virus. According to the invention, an amino acid sequence A1 which is derived from the C-terminal end of virus protein 2 (VP2) or 3 (VP3) of the polyoma virus is bonded to an active ingredient at one of its ends.
