ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a homogeneously pure monocyte chemotactic protein, CAP37, and the entire coding sequences for unprocessed and mature human CAP37 protein. Further, the recombinant production, from nucleic acid coding sequences, of mature CAP37 protein and the mature protein with amino-terminal and/or carboxy-terminal extensions is described. Also disclosed are methods to identify and recombinantly produce bioactive peptides derived from the CAP37 protein coding sequence which are effective chemoattractants of monocytes and/or are capable of binding bacterial lipopolysaccharide. A method of preparing homogeneously pure CAP37 using hydrophobic HPLC is described. Bioactive peptide fragments of CAP37 having chemotactic, antibacterial and/or LPS-binding activity are disclosed. Finally, methods of treating wounds, diseased tissue, such as tumors, and infections are described.
