| Abstract: | Feline proinsulin was cloned and expressed using a bacterial expression system. It was then purified from inclusion bodies using size exclusion chromatography and further processed including reduction of the protein. Following refolding, proinsulin was purified by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). RP-HPLC and mass spectrometric analysis indicated that the proinsulin contained the correct disulfide bridging pattern. This proinsulin can be used for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. |
