IGF-I fusion proteins; protection of IGF-I from degradation by host cell proteases; and processes for the production thereof

摘要

IGF-I fused with a protective peptide, in which the protective peptide is a protein peptide and is used for the protection of IGF-I from degradation by protease in cells of E. coli is disclosed. Also disclosed are genes coding for the fused IGF-I's, plasmids containing the genes, and E. coli microorganisms transformed with the plasmids.
