Abstract
Specific fragments of the protein PP15 were prepared by enzyme cleavage. Using statistical data, specific oligonucleotides were selected from the oligonucleotides coding for the specific PP15 fragments. These oligonucleotides were then used as probes to successfully screen a cDNA bank of mature human placenta and isolate the complete cDNA of PP15. The cDNA was sequenced and characterized. This cDNA can be used to prepare PP15 protein in prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells.
Claims3
