Abstract

New analogs of FTS (Facteur Thymique Sérique), less than (Formula: see text), a circulating thymic factor, were prepared by replacing the amino acid residues in positions, 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 3 and 6 together. Five other analogs of C-terminal heptapeptide were prepared by replacing the amino acid residues in position 3 or 6. These peptides were synthesized using conventional synthesis in solution.
