RICE SH-POLYPEPTIDE-9

Rice sh-Polypeptide-9 is a single chain recombinant human peptide, produced by rice, Oryza sativa , after using either a transient expression system or transgenesis (stable insertion of a copy of a human gene into its DNA). The starting gene is synthesized to be identical to the human gene which codes for Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A. It contains a maximum of 412 amino acids, which may contain disulfide bonds and/or glycosylation. The protein consists of the proper sequence of the 20 standard amino acids.
