r-(sh-Oligopeptide-75 sh-Polypeptide-9) is a single chain recombinant peptide, produced by fermentation in E. coli. The starting gene is synthesized by the fusion of the genes from sh-Oligopeptide-75 and sh-Polypeptide-9. The fusion peptide contains 127 amino acids which may contain disulfide bonds and/or glycosylation, and consists of the proper sequence of the 20 standard amino acids.
