Abstract excerpt
One of the most important findings in structure-function studies on glucagon by means of chemical synthesis is the discovery that [Lys(17,18),Glu(21)]-glucagon had higher biological activity than native glucagon. This mutant of glucagon was called superactive glucagon (SA-glucagon). In the present work, the possibility to obtain SA-glucagon by means of genetic engineering was studied. The gene of SA-glucagon...
