1. An expression cassette, comprising:
- (a) a polynucleotide sequence encoding an SP-C peptide;
(b) a polynucleotide sequence encoding an MBP protein; and
(c) a polynucleotide sequence encoding a linker peptide,wherein said a polynucleotide sequence encoding a linker peptide encodes a protease cleavage site and is located between said polynucleotide sequence encoding an SP-C peptide and said polynucleotide sequence encoding an MBP protein, andsaid encoding polynucleotide sequence being operatively linked to a promoter sequence suitable for the expression in a prokaryotic cell.
