METHOD OF PRODUCING PEPTIDES

摘要

Recombinant Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis viruses having, in the polyhedral protein-encoding structural gene portion of the Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus DNA (BmNPV DNA), a structural gene for a desired protein as joined to the whole of or a part of the polyhedral protein-encoding structural gene with or without interposition of a linker base sequence, and a method of producing a desired protein which comprises propagating the above recombinant viruses in silkwormderived cells or silkworms to thereby produce fused proteins of a desired protein and the whole of or a part of the polyhedral protein as joined together with or without interposition of a linking amino acid or peptide and then cleaving the fused proteins at the linking site. to thereby recover a desired protein.
