摘要:
Disclosed are hirudin analogs, a method of manufacture thereof, and anticoagulant compositions containing the same. Sequences Asp.sup.33 -Gly.sup.34 or Asp.sup.62 -Ala.sup.63 of naturally-occurring hirudins or their analogs were substituted as disclosed to suppress the formation of succinimide- or beta- forms, thereby yielding hirudin analogs with high stability, high anti-thrombin activity, and therapeutic potential as anticoagulants. Hirudin analogs having Val.sup.1 -Val.sup.2 of naturally-occurring hirudin substituted with Ile.sup.1 -Ile.sup.2 are preferred for their high antithrombiin activity. The invention also provides DNAs encoding the amino acid sequence of hirudin analogs, expression vectors, recombinant microogranisms, and a method of manufacturing hirudin analogs using recombinant microorganisms.
