Abstract:
The DNA sequence of Kringle-2 and serine protease domains of the human tissue plasminogen activator (reteplase, K2S) was PCR amplified. This product was then cloned into the expression vector pET15b plasmid. The presence of the insert was confirmed by restriction digestion, PCR and determination of the nucleotide sequence. By using isopropyl beta-D thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG), reteplase was induced in E. coli BL21 cells and analyzed using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE).
