STABLE PROPAGATION OF MODIFIED FULL LENGTH CYSTIC FIBROSIS TRANSMEMBRANE CONDUCTANCE REGULATOR PROTEIN cDNA IN HETEROLOGOUS SYSTEMS

Summary

A modified DNA sequence encoding full length cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein is provided to facilitate propagation and/or expression of the protein in living cells and in particular, bacterial cells. The modified DNA sequence comprises at least one of the 13 base pair repeat of exon 6b of the normal gene encoding the conductance regulator protein, as one or more normal nucleotides of the 13 base pair repeat substituted with an alternate nucleotide which however continues to code for the corresponding normal amino acid. Mammalian cells transfected with a vector containing the modified DNA sequence enhances chlorine conductance through the cell wall.
