Fusion protein and its preparation method for intermediate polypeptide of Semaglutide - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240343772 titled 'Fusion protein and its preparation method for intermediate polypeptide of Semaglutide

The invention pertains to a fusion protein and its preparation method for the intermediate polypeptide of semaglutide, falling within the realm of genetic engineering and polypeptide preparation. The fusion protein consists of a fusion peptide, a protease cleavage site, and a target main molecular sequence. Through optimizing the fusion peptide sequence, modifications in the isoelectric point and hydrophilicity of the protein, the expression of the fusion protein is significantly enhanced to 13.1 g/L. Additionally, the properties of the fusion protein are enhanced, facilitating subsequent extraction, enzyme digestion, and purification processes. The yield of the intermediate polypeptide after enzyme digestion is 3.62 g/L. The production cost of semaglutide intermediate polypeptide Arg34GLP-1(9-37) is reduced, enabling industrial scale-up and suitable for large-scale production.

  • Fusion protein optimized for increased expression and improved properties
