  • Title: Bacillus amyloliquefaciens alpha-amylase signal sequence fused in frame with human proinsulin is properly processed by Bacillus subtilis cells.
    Author: Novikov AA, Borukhov SI, Strongin AYa.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1990 May 31; 169(1):297-301. PubMed ID: 2112381.
    Abstract:
    The plasmid pBINS1, containing the promoter, SD and leader peptide sequences of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens alpha-amylase gene and 267 bp long sequence coding for human proinsulin directs the efficient synthesis of hybrid preproinsulin, as well as quantitative secretion of proinsulin outside of protease-deficient Bacillus subtilis AJ73 cells. The recombinant proinsulin has been isolated from the culture medium and its N-terminal sequence shown to be identical with that of natural human prohormone.
