Recombinant DNA which encodes the beta subunit, or the immature beta subunit, of human FSH, vectors which comprise the recombinaint DNA, host cells which are transformed with the vectors, a process for preparing the beta subunit or its immature form, and the immature beta subunit of human FSH

摘要

Biologically active heterodimeric human FSH and other hormones similarly composed of alpha and beta subunits are synthesised in cells transfected with one or more expression vectors comprising heterologous DNA encoding each of the subunits.
