Abstract: A process for the production of a purified recombinant GDF-5 related protein in prokaryotes comprises the steps of bacterial cell disruption and inclusion body solubilization to obtain a solubilized monomer of a GDF-5 related protein, said process characterized by a) disruption of bacterial cells with a high pressure homogenizer at a disruption pressure between 800 and 900 bar; and/or b) treatment of the recovered inclusion bodies with a denaturing solubilization buffer comprising L-arginine.
