Abstract:
The invention is related to a method for making an activated carboxypeptidase in a fungi cell comprising introducing a DNA sequence encoding a proform of the carboxypeptidase wherein a Kex2 site has been introduced in the prosequence of the carboxypeptidase, culturing the fungi cell under conditions suitable for expression of the procarboxypeptidase and cleaving off the prosequence within the cell to liberate the free active form of the carboxypeptidase. The invention is also related to methods for making mature human insulin and human insulin analogues by use of the activated carboxypeptidase enzyme.
