A rapid procedure for production of human basic fibroblast growth factor in Escherichia coli cells

Biochim Biophys Acta. 1992 Jul 15;1131(3):307-10. doi: 10.1016/0167-4781(92)90029-y.

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.
