Abstract
This invention relates to a process for producing a heterologous polypeptide in Streptomyces which involves transforming a Streptomyces organism with a recombinant DNA molecule comprising an LEP-10 of LTl sequence selected from the group consisting of a sequence encoding a gene expression unit, a promoter sequence or an export control encoding sequence each operatively linked to a heterologous coding sequence and then culturing the transformed Streptomyces such that the heterologous polypeptide is expressed.
