ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to the use of IL-1-like fusion polypeptides to increase the solubility and activity of recombinant polypeptides. The invention includes a nucleic acid encoding a fusion polypeptide comprising an interleukin-1-like polypeptide and a polypeptide of interest and the method of using such a nucleic acid to produce recombinant fusion polypeptides.
