ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to mammalian enzymatically active calpain produced in insect cells by recombinant means. Recombinant vectors and baculoviruses containing cDNA encoding the 80 kDa subunit, 30 kDa subunit, and both subunits are described. Methods for producing recombinant enzymatically active mammalian calpain are also described.
