DNA CONSTRUCT FOR EXPRESSION OF GENES IN YEAST, AN EXPRESSION VECTOR CONTAINING IT AND YEAST TRANSFORMED WITH SAID EXPRESSION VECTOR

摘要

DNA constructs are provided which direct high expression of structural genes in yeast. Said DNA constructs utilize the yeast mating factor alpha -1 prepro- coding sequence tandemly linked to a 103 base pair region of the SUC2 gene encoding the 34 amino-terminal amino acids of the invertase gene, and a structural gene encoding a polypeptide of choice in reading frame therewith.
