Abstract

Abstract A novel motilin analog peptide containing leucine instead of the usual l3th amino acid methionine, as in the naturally occurring motilin, is produced by gene recombi­nation techniques in which several or identical genes, each coding for the novel peptide, are joined in series into a vector. The resultant recombinant DNA is introduced into Escherichia coli and the resultant transformant is cultivated. The resulting polymeric peptide can be cleaved to give the desired peptide.
