Abstract
Novel polypeptides, designated hirullins, have a strong antithrombic activity and can therefore be used for the therapy and prophylaxis of thromboses. Said compounds are isolated from the leech Hirudinaria manillensis or are produced by conventional peptide synthesis or by recombinant DNA techniques. DNA sequences encoding hirullins P6 and P18 are supplied, hybrid vectors and transformed microorganisms for recombinant hirullin production are supplied.
