Abstract
A genetic-engineering construction is developed containing the full-size cDNA of human α-1-antitrypsin, controlled by the promotor and enhancer elements from cytomegalovirus. It is shown that, after transfection with this recombinant DNA, it is properly expressed in heterologous animal cells.
