ABSTRACT:
Novel short peptides of up to about 20 amino acid residues are disclosed that bind to the SEC receptor. These novel peptides preferably are pentapeptides which are synthetic analogs of a pentapeptide domain in the carboxy-terminal fragment of .alpha..sub.1 -antitrypsin (amino acids 370-374, Phe-Val-Phe-Leu-Met [SEQ ID NO:2]). A preferred binding peptide is Phe-Val-Ala-Leu-Met [SEQ ID NO;6].
