摘要:
It has now been discovered that certain mutant forms of pro-urokinase (“pro-UK”), such as so-called pro-UK mutant “M5” (Lys300→His), perform in the manner of pro-UK in lysing “bad” blood clots (those clots that occlude blood vessels), while sparing hemostatic fibrin in the so-called “good” blood clots (those clots that seal wounds, e.g., after surgery or other tissue injury). Thus, these pro-UK mutants are excellent and safe thrombolytic agents. These advantages allow them to be used in a variety of new methods, devices, and compositions useful for thrombolysis and treating various cardiovascular disorders in clinical situations where administration of other known thrombolytic agents has been too risky or even contraindicated.

摘要:
A bFGF is prepared by:(i) forming an adduct between heparin or heparan sulphate and a bFGF which has the 9-10 Leu-Pro bond;(ii) treating the adduct with pepsin A or cathepsin D, thereby cleaving the said bond; and(iii) releasing from the adduct the bFGF thus obtained.This process may be applied to prepare the 146 amino acid form of bFGF from longer forms of bFGF. It may also be used to produce a single form of bFGF from a mixture of bFGFs whose amino acid sequences differ only by having different N-terminii.
摘要:
Methods are provided for producing non-glycosylated, single-chain and two-chain pro-urokinase (pro-UK) mutants. The methods include cultivating a specific E. coli type B strain that has been transformed with specific plasmids carrying a cDNA sequence that encodes pro-UK mutants and carries specific promoter sequences. Products produced by the methods have medical use for thrombolysis performed while sparing hemostatic clots, e.g., for particular applications such as after a stroke or heart attack.
摘要:
Human serum albumin is made by culturing a bacterium (e.g. E. coli) capable of providing for the stable maintenance of a plasmid containing an inducible promoter (e.g. P.sub.trp), a ribosome binding site (e.g. that of the CII gene of bacteriophage lambda not containing the t.sub.R1 sequence), and the human serum albumin gene possessing an ATG initiation codon at the 5' end.
