Abstract
Alpha-amidating enzyme is produced by recombinant DNA techniques recoverable in high yields and at high purity. Both eukaryotic and prokaryotic expression vectors are provided having a transcriptional promoter followed downstream by a DNA sequence which encodes amidating enzyme. The vector selected is one capable of directing the expression of polypeptides in the host selected, and preferred hosts are transected with the described vectors.
