Abstract:
1. An isolated biologically active compound comprising an amino acid sequence, wherein the amino acid sequence of the compound and the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:21 have at least 80% identity, wherein the compound is not inactivated by digestion with trypsin at 25° C. for 24 hours, and wherein SEQ ID NO:21 is proline-alanine-Xaa1-leucine - Xaa2-phenylalanine-alanine-valine- Xaa3-valine-leucine- Xaa4-valine- Xaa5-phenylalanine - Xaa6-alanine- Xaa7- Xaa8-valine- Xaa9-valine-valine- Xaa10-arginine-leucine-alanine - Xaa11- Xaa12-glycine-asparagine- Xaa13-lysine, where Xaa1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 11are each independently serine, didehydroalanine, or alanine, Xaa7, 12, and 13 are each independently cysteine or alanine, and Xaa9 and 10 are each independently threonine, didehydrobutyrine, or 2-aminobutyric acid.
