Research Abstract |
To investigate pharmaceutical utilization of follistatin family proteins as TGF-beta superfamily antagonists, recombinant follistatin family proteins were expressed in E. coli. However, the proteins produced in E. coli did not show biological activities. Therefore, we examined mammalian cell-expression system. We could obtain biologically active proteins by the mammalian cell system but quantity and purity of the proteins remain to be improved.
