FIELD: medicine, pharmaceutics. ^ SUBSTANCE: claimed invention relates to optimised fused protein for blocking BLyS or APRIL, which contains extracellular region of N-end of truncated TACI (transmembrane activator and CAML-partner) and Fc sequence IgG. TACI segment of fused protein contains sequence of amino-end region of extracellular region, starting with 13-th amino acid residue, complete sequence of stem area from TACI and is obtained from native sequence of TACI between 12-th and 120-th amino acids. Segment Fc of immunoglobulin IgG of fused protein contains hinge region, CH2 region and CH3 region, TACI segment and Fc segment are fused either directly or through linker sequence. In addition, claimed is DNA sequence which codes fused protein, expression vector, host-cell, pharmaceutical composition, containing fused protein, and application of fused protein for blocking BLyS or APRIL. Obtained fused protein does not degrade in process of expression, possesses high biological activity and high level of expression. ^ EFFECT: fused protein in accordance with claimed invention can be used in treatment of diseases, associated with abnormal immunologic functions and in treatment of diseases caused by abnormal proliferation of B-lymphocytes. ^ 10 cl, 6 dwg, 8 ex |
