[0002] The present invention relates to chimera vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF). More particularly, the present invention relates to a chimera protein having an activity of growing vascular endothelial cells, which is obtained by substituting a part of the sequence of a VEGF analogous protein having an activity of vascularization that binds to KDR (VEGF receptor-2) but does not bind to Flt-1 (VEGF receptor-1) with a corresponding sequence of a human-derived VEGF analogous protein. The present invention also relates to a medicament comprising the chimera protein, DNA encoding th...
