Is sr-Horse Oligopeptide-1 vegetarian?

sr-Horse Oligopeptide-1 is a single-chain recombinant protein produced by fermentation in E. coli, synthesized from a gene identical to that coding for horse Epidermal Growth Factor, containing up to 89 amino acids; although modeled on an animal protein, it is produced biotechnologically without animal-derived material.

An ingredient is considered vegetarian if it avoids components derived from killing an animal.
