Abstract

Substantially pure mammalian basic fibroblast growth factors are produced. The amino acid residue sequences of bovine and human bFGF are disclosed as well as a DNA chain encoding the polypeptide of the bovine species. By appropriately inserting a synthesized DNA chain into a cloning vector and using the cloning vector to transform cells, synthetic bFGF can be obtained from transformed cell lines, both prokaryotic and eukaryotic.
