  • Publication number: 20220089647
    Abstract: There is provided a cyclic peptide containing a cyclic segment containing an RGD sequence and having 8 to 14 amino acid residues. A thioether bond is formed between an amino acid residue Xa located on a most N-terminal side of the cyclic segment and an amino acid residue Xb located on a most C-terminal side of the cyclic segment. However, in a case where one of the amino acid residue Xa and the amino acid residue Xb is a cysteine residue, an ? carbon of the other amino acid residue of the amino acid residue Xa and the amino acid residue Xb is separated from a sulfur atom of the cysteine residue by five or more atoms.

  • Patent number: 8557194
    Abstract: A carrier comprises a base plate, a polymeric film, which has been bound on a surface of the base plate, and a ligand, which has been bound with the polymeric film. The ligand has been bound with the polymeric film at a density falling within the range of 1.0×1016 pieces/mm3 to 3.3×1018 pieces/mm3. The carrier is produced with a process, comprising the steps of: causing the polymeric film to bind on the base plate, and causing the ligand to bind with the polymeric film, the step of causing the ligand to bind with the polymeric film being performed in an organic solvent.
