MASTER GENE OF ARTERIOGENESIS

摘要

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising (a) a polynucleotide comprising or consisting of a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide with the amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2; (b) a polynucleotide comprising or consisting of a nucleotide sequence which is a fragment of a nucleotide sequence encoding the polypeptide with the amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, wherein the polypeptide encoded by said polynucleotide has arteriogenic activity; (c) a polynucleotide comprising or consisting of a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide, wherein said polypeptide exhibits at least 70% sequence identity with the sequence of the polypeptide encoded by the polynucleotide of (a) or (b) over the entire length, and wherein said polypeptide has arteriogenic activity; and/or (d) a polypeptide encoded by the polynucleotide of any one of (a) to (c).
