Abstract
Methods for expressing a variety of biologically active PDGF analogs in eucaryotic cells are disclosed. The methods generally comprise introducing into a eucaryotic host cell a DNA construct capable of directing the expression and secretion of biologically active PDGF analogs in eucaryotic cells. The DNA construct contains a transcriptional promoter followed downstream by a suitable DNA sequence. The DNA sequence may encode a protein substantially homologous to the A-chain or the B-chain of PDGF, or a portion thereof, or an A-B heterodimer. In addition, a portion of the DNA sequence may encode at least a portion of the A-chain, while another portion encodes at least a portion of the B-chain of PDGF. Eucaryotic cells transformed with these DNA constructs are also disclosed. Methods of promoting the growth of mammalian cells, comprising incubating the cells with a biologically active PDGF analog expressed by a eucaryotic host cell transformed with such a DNA construct, are also disclosed.
