Human collagenase inhibitor, recombinant vector system for using same and recombinant DNA method for the manufacture of same

摘要

A portable DNA sequence is disclosed which is capable of directing intracellular production of metalloproteinanse inhibitors. Vectors containing this portable DNA sequence are also set forth, including the vector pUC9-F5/237P10 (ATCC Accession No. 53003). A recombinant-DNA method for the microbial production of a metalloproteinase inhibitor, which method incorporates at least one of the portable DNA sequences and the vectors disclosed herein.
