  • Recombinant preparation of calcitonin fragments and use thereof in the preparation of calcitonin and related analogs
    Patent number: 6410707
    Abstract: A process for the recombinant preparation of a calcitonin fragment and the use of the fragment in the preparation of calcitonin and related analogs is provided. The process includes recombinantly forming a fusion protein which includes the calcitonin fragment linked to a carbonic anhydrase. The recombinantly formed fusion protein is subsequently cleaved to produce a polypeptide which includes the calcitonin fragment. A method for producing a calcitonin carba analog which includes condensing a desaminononapeptide with the recombinantly formed calcitonin fragment is also provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 2, 2001
    Date of Patent: June 25, 2002
    Assignee: BioNebraska, Inc.
    Inventors: Fred W. Wagner, Jay S. Stout, Dennis B. Henriksen, Bruce E. Partridge, Bart Holmquist, Julie A. Frank
