Abstract excerpt
To develop a more potent thrombolytic agent, four Sak (staphylokinase) variants were constructed, in which RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) sequences are introduced into diferent sites of the N-terminus of Sak. These variants were successfully expressed in Escherichia coli DH5alpha as soluble cytoplasmic proteins in a 5-litre fermentor and accounted for more than 40% of the total cellular protein. The expressed proteins were...
