  • Recombinant bacterial plasmids containing the coding sequences of insulin genes
    Patent number: 4652525
    Abstract: A recombinant procaryotic microorganism containing the gene coding for insulin.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 28, 1983
    Date of Patent: March 24, 1987
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: William J. Rutter, Raymond Pictet, John Chirgwin, Howard M. Goodman, Axel Ullrich, John Shine
  • Method for producing recombinant bacterial plasmids containing the coding sequences of higher organisms
    Patent number: 4440859
    Abstract: Microorganism having a gene derived from a higher organism is produced by isolating cells from a higher organism containing messenger RNA, extracting the messenger RNA, synthesizing a double stranded cDNA using the messenger RNA as a template, inserting the cDNA into a plasmid and transforming a microorganism with the resultant recombinant plasmid.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 11, 1981
    Date of Patent: April 3, 1984
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: William J. Rutter, Howard M. Goodman, Axel Ullrich, John Shine, John Chirgwin, Raymond Pictet
  • DNA Transfer vector and transformed microorganism containing human proinsulin and pre-proinsulin genes
    Patent number: 4431740
    Abstract: A DNA having a base sequence coding for human proinsulin and a DNA having a base sequence coding for human pre-proinsulin have been cloned, and novel recombinant DNA transfer vectors containing said cloned DNAs have been constructed. Novel microorganisms transformed by said recombinant transfer vectors have been obtained. Certain of said transformed microorganisms have demonstrated capability to express the cloned DNA's, synthesizing a protein comprising human proinsulin and a protein-comprising human pre-proinsulin.
