Nukleinsyrer som koder for (poly)peptider med CHIPS-aktivitet

摘要

The invention relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding chemotaxis inhibitory (poly)peptides, to recombinant vectors harboring such molecules, and the host cells carrying the vectors. The invention further relates to methods for preparing recombinant chemotaxis inhibitory (poly)peptides and to the use of such recombinant chemotaxis inhibitory (poly)peptides for diagnosis, prophylaxis and treatment, such as the treatment of inflammation reactions and HIV. In addition the invention provides therapeutic and diagnostic compositions comprising as the active ingredient the chemotaxis inhibitory (poly)peptide.
