    摘要: A process is provided for cleaving a polypeptide into at least two polypeptide components comprising treating a reduced, free-cysteine form of the polypeptide with a cleaving agent under conditions for cleaving the polypeptide at a desired junction between the polypeptide cleavage products. More preferably, the process for cleaving comprises culturing cells containing DNA encoding said polypeptide, wherein at least one Asp codon is present in said DNA at a desired junction between the components to be cleaved from each other, said culturing resulting in expression of the DNA to produce the polypeptide in the host cell culture; and treating a reduced, free-cysteine form of the polypeptide with dilute acid under conditions for cleaving the polypeptide at the Asp junction. In particular embodiments, a DNA sequence is provided that encodes a relaxin precursor and includes codons encoding aspartic acid-containing linkers at novel positions within the precursor, allowing the ready cleavage of relaxin A peptides by treatment with dilute acid.

    摘要: Processes for producing various heterologous polypeptides which when expressed are either incorrectly processed and hence asssociated with the surface of the host cell or are not processed to mature form. More specifically, processes for the production of heterologous non-human carbonyl hydrolases expressed either in host cells incapable of producing enzymatically active endoprotease or host cells deficient in enzymatically active extracellular endoprotease are disclosed. Such non-human carbonyl hydrolases generally are incapable of autoproteolytic maturation and become associated with the surface of expression hosts which are deficient in enzymatically active extracellular endoprotease. Processes for preparing non-human carbonyl hydrolase and heterologous polypeptides which are expressed as part of a fusion polypeptide are also disclosed, as well as non-human carbonyl hydrolases which are substantially free of the host cell membrane with which they are normally associated.

    摘要: The instant invention discloses the unexpected result that mutant signal sequences with reduced translational strength provided essentially complete processing and high levels of expression of a polypeptide of interest as compared to wild type signal sequences, and that many mammalian polypeptides require a narrow range of translation levels to achieve maximum secretion. A set of signal sequence vectors provides a range of translational strengths for optimizing expression of a polypeptide of interest.
