| abstract |
The present invention provides a novel expression vector for Phytolacca antiviral protein isolated from Phytolacca americana L. and a microorganism transformed with said PAP expression vector. In accordance with the present invention, biologically active PAP can be produced in a massive manner from the microorganism transformed with the expression vector of the invention; and, therefore, the recombinant PAP can be practically applied to various fields, e.g., the molecular studies on PAP and treatment of AIDS employing immunoconjugate. |
