Abstract:
1. A polypeptide, wherein the amino acid sequence of said polypeptide is Ala-Gly-Tyr-Lys-Pro-Asp-Glu-Gly-Lys-Arg-Gly-Asp-Ala-Xaa-Glu-Gly-Asp-Ser-Gly-Gly-Pro-Phe-Val (SEQ ID NO: 5) or a fragment of said polypeptide, wherein said fragment comprises the amino acid sequence Arg-Gly-Asp-Ala-Xaa-Glu-Gly-Asp-Ser-Gly-Gly-Pro-Phe-Val (SEQ ID NO: 2), wherein said polypeptide or said fragment comprises an N-terminus which is unsubstituted and a C-terminus which is unsubstituted or which comprises an amide represented by —C(O)NH 2 and wherein Xaa is an S-protected cysteine, the thiol of which is blocked with a protecting group, provided that the protecting group is not a second polypeptide comprising SEQ ID NO: 2.
