Abstract
Producing of recombinant TSHR fragments opens up new possibilities in the development of immunochemical tests to detect stimulating and blocking antibodies to TSHR, in studying the role of the antigenic structure of TSHR in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases of the thyroid gland. The original mRNA sequence of the α-subunit of the thyroid stimulating hormone receptor, not containing nucleotide substitutions, was cloned. The obtained recombinant vector pVAX1-TSHR, prepared for transfection into cells of mammals and for the expression of the recombinant protein of the α-subunit of the thyroid stimulating hormone receptor.
