Dendroaspin, a polypeptide neurotoxin analogue is modified by recombinant DNA techniques, particularly "loop grafting" to provide a modified polypeptide. The modified polypeptide is constructed so as to retain dendroaspin activity, for example, platelet adhesion to fibrinogen, in addition to possessing one or more further biological or biochemical activities not native to dendroaspin, for example, platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) activity or hirudin activity. |
