Abstract
The present invention relates to a DNA molecule containing intron sequences and encoding a human protein which is, depending on the site of action, called Bile Salt-Stimulated Lipase (BSSL) or Carboxyl Ester Lipase (CEL). The DNA molecule is advantageously used in the production of recombinant human BSSL/CEL, preferably by means of production in transgenic non-human mammals. The recombinant human BSSL/CEL can be used as a constituent of infant formulas used for feeding infants as a substitute for human milk, or in the manufacture of medicaments against e.g. fat malabsorption, cystic fibrosis and chronic pancreatitis.
