Expression of human immune interferon cDNA in E. coli and monkey cells

Expression of human immune interferon cDNA in E. coli and monkey cells A cDNA sequence coding for human immune interferon (IFN-γ) has been identified in a cDNA library prepared from gel-fractionated IFN-γ mRNA. The DNA sequence codes for a polypeptide of 166 amino acids, 20 of which could constitute a signal peptide. The polypeptide produced through expression of this DNA sequence in Escherichia coli or cultured monkey cells had properties characteristic of authentic human IFN-γ. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Nature Springer Journals

Abstract

A cDNA sequence coding for human immune interferon (IFN-γ) has been identified in a cDNA library prepared from gel-fractionated IFN-γ mRNA. The DNA sequence codes for a polypeptide of 166 amino acids, 20 of which could constitute a signal peptide. The polypeptide produced through expression of this DNA sequence in Escherichia coli or cultured monkey cells had properties characteristic of authentic human IFN-γ.
