Abstract
This invention is related to the DNA encoding the porcine complement inhibitor (pMCPcDNA), the porcine complement inhibitor expressed by the DNA, and a method for screening for the porcine complement inhibitor. pMCPcDNA can be obtained by preparing a cDNA library from porcine vascular endothelium and screening for cDNA encoding the porcine complement inhibitor. pMCPcDNA of this invention is useful for production of the porcine complement inhibitor by genetic recombination and for analysis for the promoter region of the porcine complement inhibitor.
