A CASSETTE TO ACCUMULATE MULTIPLE PROTEINS THROUGH SYNTHESIS OF A SELF-PROCESSING POLYPEPTIDE

摘要

A cassette for simultaneous expression of two or more heterogenous peptides in equimolar amounts and based upon the nuclear inclusion (NIa) protease from tobacco etch potyvirus. The heterogenous peptides are translated and incorporated into a polypeptide that also includes the protease which releases the heterologous proteins post translationally by autoproteolytic reaction.
