Abstract

Human basic fibroblast growth factor has been expressed in Escherichia coli cells at a level of 2-3 mg/l culture, using a rapid procedure which requires only simple DNA manipulative work. The recombinant material has the same potency as natural basic fibroblast growth factor from bovine pituitary glands.
