  • Patent number: 9782455
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of preparing a peptide comprising the amino acid sequence His-Gly-Asp-Gly-Ser-Phe-Ser-Asp-Glu-Met-Asn-Thr-Ile-Leu-Asp-Asn-Leu-Ala-Ala-Arg-Asp-Phe-Ile-Asn-Trp-Leu-Ile-Gln-Thr-Lys-Ile-Thr-Asp (SEQ ID NO:1). In particular, the method comprises the steps of providing a first peptide fragment having a first protection group, which peptide fragment is conjugated to a support; providing a second peptide fragment having a second protection group; removing the first protection group from the first peptide fragment; and coupling the second peptide fragment to the N-terminally deprotected, support-conjugated first peptide fragment. The present invention further relates to a method of preparing a pharmaceutical composition containing said peptide.

  • Publication number: 20050276385
    Abstract: Event logging methods and systems for communication networks are provided. Events associated with particular communication sessions are logged responsive to detection of any of a plurality of event logging triggers which have been established for the communication sessions. Per-session event logging according to embodiments of the invention may provide improved event logging functions for communication network fault or error analysis by enabling enhanced trigger-based event logging control and logging of a wide range of events, including standards-based signalling messages, at network elements throughout a communication network.
