Secretory expression of α single-chain insulin precursor in yeast and its conversion into human insulin

A synthetic single-chain porcine insulin precursor (PIP) gene and an α-mating factor leader sequence (αMFL) gene obtained by the PCR method are inserted between the promoter and 3'-terminating sequence of the alcohol dehydrogenase gene ADH1 in plasmid pVT102-U to form plasmid pVT102-U/α MFL-PIP. The single-chain insulin precursor is expressed and secreted to the culture medium by Saccharomyces cererisiae transformed by pVT102-U/αMFL-PIP. The precursor is purified and converted into human insulin by tryptic transpeptidation. The purified human insulin is fully active and can be crystallized. The overall yield of human insulin is 25 mg per liter of culture medium.     

基于虚拟仿真技术的生物工程类综合实验教学改革与实践

生物工程类专业要求学生有较强的抽象问题思考分析能力,对学生的综合实践能力也有着更高要求,由于其专业特点,需要通过开展一系列实验培养解决复杂问题的能力.因此,开展针对生物工程类专业综合性实验的改革与实践以改善传统综合性实验的教学现状就显得尤为重要,对于综合性人才的培养具有十分积极的意义.本文阐述了滨州学院"生物工程综合实...
