Abstract

The present invention provides a segment of glycosylation-deficient HGF having mutation(s) introduced into an amino acid sequence so as to prevent glycosylation at at least one glycosylation site of a hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), and a method of producing the same. The segment of glycosylation-deficient HGF of the present invention has the same activity as that of a segment of glycosylated HGF, therefore, it is useful as an alternate for a segment of glycosylated HGF.
