Notes:
The pentapeptide fragment of thymopoietin II (32-36) (TP5) shows similar biological activities as the parent molecule, also induces E-rosette formation, and enhances phagocytosis. In order to elucidate further structural and functional requirements for its activity we decided to replace each amino acid residue of the pentapeptide by proline moieties.
