FRAGMENT ENCODING SWINE TSH (TFIYROID-STIMULATING HORMONE) RECEPTOR AND USE THEREOF

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a DNA fragment encoding swine TSH (Thyroid-stimulating hormone) receptor and to provide use thereof.;SOLUTION: This DNA fragment is a DNA which has a base sequence encoding an amino acid sequence represented by sequence number 1 (reference to the specification), a base sequence represented by sequence number 2 (reference to the specification) or a base sequence in which one or several bases are deleted, substituted or added in these sequences or is hybridized with these DNAs under a stringent condition and encodes a swine-derived TSH receptor. This expression vector is prepared by inserting the DNA fragment into a plasmid or a phage. This recombinant swine TSH receptor is obtained by transforming a host cell by using the expression vector and culturing the obtained transformant. This method for producing the recombinant swine TSH receptor is provided.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
