Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for preparing a target peptide or a salt thereof by stably expressing the target peptide in a microorganism in the form of a repeatedly linked precursor protein, and then breaking the peptide bond of the precursor protein. Background technique
[0002] There are three known methods for synthesizing peptides: an organic chemical method, a method using enzymes, and a method using genetic recombination technology.
[0003] Among them, it is very difficult to synthesize a peptide by a direct expression method in terms of a method using gene recombination technology. The reason is that even if the peptides can be directly expressed, the prepared peptides are rapidly decomposed one by one by the protease in the bacteria.
[0004] Therefore, when using genetic recombination technology to synthesize peptides, the fusion protein method of expressing them in the form of a fusion protein with a protective protein is gene...
