NOVEL DNA SEQUENCES, THEIR APPLICATION AS A SEQUENCE ENCODING A SIGNAL PEPTIDE FOR THE SECRETION OF MATURE PROTEINS BY RECOMBINANT YEASTS, EXPRESSION CASSETTES, PROCESSED YEASTS AND PROCESS FOR PREPARING THE SAME

摘要

The invention relates to new DNA fragments and to their application as a DNA coding fragment for a signal peptide which can be used for the secretion of proteins, said peptide including a sequence of amino-acids which show a degree of correspondence of at least 60 % with the sequence of amino-acids (I) or (II), preferably with the sequence (II). The sequences (I) and (II) are as follows: (I) Arg-Phe-Ser-Thr-Thr-Leu-Ala-Thr-Ala-Ala-Thr-Ala-Leu-Phe-Phe-Thr-Ala-Se r-Gln. (II) Arg-Phe-Ser-Thr-Thr-Leu-Ala-Thr-Ala-Ala-Thr-Ala-Leu-Phe-Phe-Thr-Ala-Se r-Gln-Val-Ser-Ala.
