Abstract
Novel polypeptides possessing biochemical and immunological properties of avian growth hormone are obtained by practice of recombinant DNA procedures. Novel DNA sequences are disclosed which are capable of directing the synthesis of such polypeptides in selected host microorganisms. In a preferred embodiment, a novel polypeptide with the properties of avian growth hormone of chicken species origins is produced as a result of bacterial expression of a novel plasmid, cGH-T21. This plasmid is harbored in transformed E. coli C600 cells deposited as A.T.C.C. 39182. Also disclosed is a DNA sequence capable of directing the synthesis of a novel polypeptide with the properties of avian growth hormone of turkey species origin.
