Peptide or derivative
Comment: This peptide corresponds to the exon 7-encoded neuropilin-1-binding site of VEGF165 [1]. It induces tumour cell and endothelial cell apoptosis via binding to neuropilin 1.
The peptide sequence was claimed in Ark Therapeutics' patent WO2003082918A1 that was granted in 2003 [2], in which EG3287 is noted as being a bicyclic form of Ac-SCKNTDSRCKARQLELNERTCRCDKPRR. |
