Is sr-Dog Polypeptide-2 vegetarian?

sr-Dog Polypeptide-2 is a single-chain recombinant protein produced by fermentation in E. coli, based on a synthetic gene identical to the gene coding for canine Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A. Although modeled on a dog gene sequence, the protein itself is manufactured via microbial fermentation and does not involve animal-derived material.

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