  • Expression system for the secretion of intracellular proteins
    Patent number: 6881832
    Abstract: Mammalian signal peptides can be used to aid in the secretion of mammalian proteins that are normally not secreted. By inactivating signals normally present in the 3? UTRs of mRNAs encoding proteins that are normally not secreted from mammalian cells, the proportion of such mRNA molecules directed to free and cytoskeletal bound polysomes can be reduced.
