Title:
METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING HUMAN EPIDERMAL CELL GROWTH FACTOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/097733
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a novel means making possible the manufacture of an epidermal growth factor (EGF) with good efficiency and lower cost than conventional techniques. As a result of thoroughgoing research aimed at developing a technique for producing human EGF using plants, the inventors of the present application succeeded in finding a modified EGF coding sequence and a signal peptide coding sequence that allow production of EGF with high efficiency using a transient expression system. Using these sequences allows EGF to be produced with good efficiency even when the transient expression system of a viral vector is used.
