摘要:
The invention relates to a new tissue plasminogen activator which has strong activity for converting plasminogen into plasmin that degrades the fibrin network of blood clots to form soluble products and therefore is useful as a thrombolytic agent. The invention also relates to a DNA sequence encoding the amino acid sequence for the tissue plasminogen activator, to a process for producing the plasminogen activator, and to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the new tissue plasminogen activator.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a monoclonal antibody (anti-FKBP antibody) which recognizes an antigenic determinant in an FK506-binding protein and does not inhibit the binding between an FK506-binding protein and FK506, a method for assaying an FKBP level in plasma, comprising reacting an immobilized anti-FKBP antibody, an enzyme-labelled FK506 and FKBP in a specimen, and assaying the degree of color development of an enzyme substrate, and a kit for the assay. According to the present invention, the FKBP level in plasma which affects the immunosuppressive action of FK506 can be assayed more precisely with ease, which in turn enables setting the optimal dose of FK506 in close accordance with the condition of individual patients.
摘要:
An expression vector containing both a DNA encoding an L-sorbose dehydrogenase and a DNA encoding an L-sorbosone dehydrogenase; a transformant having an ability to produce 2-keto-L-gulonic acid (hereinafter 2KLGA) at high yields from D-sorbitol, which is prepared by transforming, with said expression vector, a microorganism capable of producing L-sorbose at high yields from D-sorbitol, which has no or low 2KLGA-decomposing activity or a host microorganism having, in addition to the above-mentioned properties, no or low L-idonic acid-producing activity; and a process for producing 2KLGA, which comprises culturing said transformant in a medium containing D-sorbitol. According to the present invention, 2KLGA useful for the production of L-ascorbic acid can be produced with ease and in larger amounts by a single operation of culture.
摘要:
A novel L-sorbose dehydrogenase (SDH) and a novel L-sorbosone dehydrogenase both derived from Gluconobacter oxydans T-100, a DNA which encodes the SDH and/or SNDH, an expression vector which contains the DNA, a host cell transformed by the expression vector and a process for producing the SDH and/or SNDH, which comprises culturing the host cell in a medium and recovering the SDH and/or SNDH from the resulting culture. The SDH and SNDH of the present invention are useful enzymes having preferable properties for the production of 2-keto-L-gulonic acid, as well as L-ascorbic acid. According to the production method of the present invention, the SDH and SNDH having such preferable properties can be produced in large amounts by genetic engineering.
摘要:
Two-cistronic Met-IGF-I expression vector, in which the first cistron encodes a protective peptide with a molecular weight of about 500-50,000 and the second cistron encodes IGF-I, was provided. Also provided is a process for preparing Met-IGF-I, which comprises transforming E. coli with said vector and growing the resultant transformant, followed by the lysis of the cell culture and isolation of Met-IGF-I.
