(13) The components of this system are the direct expression vector, pYZ4, and the mature beta-lactamase (BlaM) cassette plasmid, pYZ5, that can be used to generate translational fusions of BlaM to any synthesized membrane protein.
(14) Among 13 patients in advanced stage treated with COP-BLAM therapy, CR was achieved in 11 (84.6%).

(17) Patients in partial remission (PR) or with less of a response to COP-BLAM were switched to IMV.
(18) The fusion protein conferred ampicillin resistance on individual host cells, indicating that the BlaM portion had been translocated to the bacterial periplasm, and that, by inference, the eukaryotic plasma-membrane protein can insert into the bacterial cytoplasmic membrane.
