Claims25
An expression cassette for expression of a protein of interest, wherein the said expression cassette comprises of:
- a) polynucleotide encoding T7 leader polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 1;
- b) a polynucleotide encoding expression tag polypeptide comprising of an amino acid sequence selected from the group comprising of SEQ ID NO:
- 2-10;
- c) a polynucleotide encoding a cleavable peptide linker;
- and
- d) a polynucleotide encoding the protein of interest,
- wherein the said polynucleotide sequences of the expression cassette are operably linked to a promoter.
An expression cassette for expression of lira-peptide, wherein the said expression cassette comprises of:
- a) a polynucleotide encoding T7 leader polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 1;
- b) a polynucleotide encoding expression tag polypeptide comprising of an amino acid sequence selected from the group comprising of SEQ ID NO:
- 2-10;
- c) a polynucleotide encoding a cleavable peptide linker;
- and
- d) a polynucleotide encoding lira-peptide comprising the amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO:
- 12 or a functional variant thereof,
- wherein the said polynucleotide sequences of the expression cassette are operably linked to a promoter.
A fusion polypeptide comprising of:
- a) a T7 leader polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1;
- b) an expression tag polypeptide having an amino acid sequence selected from the group comprising of SEQ ID NOs:
- 2-10;
- and
- c) a cleavable peptide linker;
- fused to the amino-terminal of a protein of interest to obtain the fusion polypeptide.
