Abstract
The present invention relates to peptides and proteins which may be used to inhibit infection or cell proliferation. It is based, at least in part, on the discovery of peptides and proteins isolated from embryonic tissue which have been found to exhibit an antiproliferative effect on a variety of cancer cells and/or to act as broad-spectrum antiviral agents.
