Identification of an IL-8 homolog in lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis ): early evolutionary divergence of chemokines
1 Feb 1999
Abstract excerpt
Subtractive hybridization was used to study river lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis) leukocyte-specific cDNA. A clone representing the most abundant component (12%) of the leukocyte library subtracted with liver cDNA was isolated and characterized. The cDNA encodes a presumably secreted polypeptide of 101 residues. The 3' untranslated region of the cDNA contains motifs characteristic of the transiently expressing...
