1. A chimeric signal peptide for protein expression, comprising an N-region, a hydrophobic region (H-region), and a C-region, wherein the N-region and the C-region are from a signal peptide of a first protein and the hydrophobic region (H-region) is from a signal peptide of a second protein, wherein the first protein is BM40 and the second protein is CD33.
