Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention provides a mutant protein which has the same amino acid sequence of a wild type PF4 monomer except that (i) at least one amino acid of the wild type PF4 monomer has been deleted, (ii) at least one amino acid of the wild type PF4 monomer has been replaced by another amino acid, or (iii) a combination of such changes has been made. The present invention also provides methods of treating or reducing the likelihood of HIT, treating angiogenesis, treating abnormal cell growth, or affecting coagulation pathologies that lead to thrombus formation, by administering such mutant proteins to a patient.
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A mutant platelet factor 4 (PF4) monomer comprising amino acids 9 to 70 of SEQ ID NO: 11 and having a Q9S substitution relative to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 11. 2. The mutant PF4 monomer of claim 1 , further comprising a L11V substitution relative to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 11. 3. The mutant PF4 monomer of claim 1 , further comprising a K50E substitution relative to SEQ ID NO: 11. 4. The mutant PF4 monomer of claim 1 , further comprising a L55R substitution relative to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 11. 5. The mutant PF4 monomer of claim 1 , further comprising a L11V substitution and a L55R substitution relative to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 11.
