Foreign gene expression in fission yeast : Schizosaccharomyces pombe /

Show other versions (1)

Recombinant proteins, produced in cells or microorganisms, play an important role in basic research, medical science and the biotechnology industry. Many foreign gene expression systems using mammalian cells, E. coli, insect cells, yeast and other organisms as hosts have been developed. However, onl...
