ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a substantially pure polypeptide having a specific amino acid sequence containing (a) an amino acid residue selected from the group consisting of Asp, Glu and Gla wherein Gla represents a .gamma.-carboxyglutamic acid residue or (b) a peptide or polypeptide residue consisting of at least two amino acid residues selected from Asp, Glu and Gla, wherein the above-mentioned at least two amino acid residues are all the same or combinations of the Asp, Glu and Gla. The polypeptide is capable of interacting with thrombin to form a binding therebetween, thereby exhibiting an activity to inhibit the blood coagulation and platelet aggregation by thrombin and/or an activity to promote the thrombin-catalyzed activation of protein C. This novel polypeptide has a low molecular weight so that it is suitable for oral or nasal administration.
