VERFAHREN ZUR PROTEINISOLIERUNG UNTERANOXISCHEN BEDINGUNGEN

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for the isolation of proteins that comprise disulfide-bonds in their native conformation. Essentially, a method of the present makes the use of reducing agents such as &bgr;-mercaptoethanol or dithiothreitol in protein isolation methods obsolete. A method of the present invention is particularly suitable for the isolation of precursor proteins such as proinsulin from recombinant cells.
