ABSTRACT:
The present invention describes a method for reducing processing ambiguity of signal peptidases. Specifically, the C-terminus of a signal sequence is mutated in a such a manner that the secreted protein contains the correct N-terminal amino acid.
Furthermore, the present invention provides an hIL-3 which is essentially homogenous at its N-terminus.
