Abstract excerpt
We have investigated different leader sequences for their ability to direct the efficient secretion of human epidermal growth factor (hEGF) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We designed a consensus signal sequence which directs secretion of hEGF from yeast as efficiently as the yeast invertase signal sequence. However, secretion is increased over fivefold by the introduction, after the signal sequence, of a...
