PCT No. PCT/KR94/00036 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 23, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 23, 1994 PCT Filed Apr. 25, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO94/25592 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 10, 1994The present invention relates to a novel gene coding human epidermal growth factor("hEGF") and a process for preparing the same employing a recombinant expression vector therefor. The hEGF gene of the invention is designed to contain codons ubiquitous in E. coli and the following restriction sites: HpaI at the 5' terminal, PstI at the 3' terminal and Bpu1102I, NsiI, MluI, Eco47III and AflII at a regular manner within its internal sequence. The present invention also provides a process for preparing hEGF by employing a expression vector pTE105 for hEGF, which contains expression cassette comprising Omp A leader sequence, translation termination sequence and transcription termination sequence and hEGF gene; and, replication origin of pUC19, tetracycline-resistant marker and a par site for stabilization in E. coli. The hEGF is produced massively in E. coli transformed with the pTE105(KCCM 10027). |
