Claims for contracting state AT A process for the preparation of polypeptides composed of genetically codable amino acids, characterized by the expression, in a host cell of the genus Streptomyces, of a gene structure which contains in the reading frame with the structural gene for the desired polypeptide the DNA sequence B of a prepeptide, which sequence is obtainable from Streptomyces tendae strains, which produce tendamistat and have preferably been treated with sublethal doses of acriflavine, by isolation of the complete DNA, digestion with Pst l, Southern hybridization with the DNA sequence A, 5'-(**32 P-)CCT TCA GTG TCG TCT TCG TA-3' (A) isolation of the 2.3 kb Pst l fragment, cutting with BamHI, Southern hybridization with the sequence A, isolation of the 0.94 kb Pst l-BamHl subfragment, cutting with Sau 3a, Southern hybriridization with the sequence A, isolation of the 0.525 kb BamHl-Sau 3a subfragment and sequencing of the DNA, and a) is located immediately upstream of the structural gene, b) codes at the amino terminal end for Met-Arg-Val-Arg-Ala-Leu-Arg, c) codes at the carboxyl terminal end for Ala-Ser-Ala and d) codes in the middle for a hydrophobic region X which comprises 10 to 25 amino acids. |
