| The active peptide is a homodimer linked by a disulphide bond between cysteine residues at position 103 of each chain. Predicted N-linked glycososylation of asparagine residue at position 80. Predicted disulphide bond formation between cysteine residues at positions 38 and 104, 67 and 136, and 71 and 138 | |
