Abstract
A recombinant expression vector capable of expressing and secreting an antibody fragment fused with E. coli thermostable enterotoxin signal sequence derivative or E. coli outer membrane protein A (Omp A) signal sequence in the form of a soluble heterozygote protein is used to mass-produce the antibody fragment by culturing a microorganism transformed with the expression vector in a medium and collecting the antibody fragment secreted from the transformed microorganism into the medium.
