Abstract excerpt
The presence of the genes for human interferon (IFN)-alpha 2a and IFN-alpha 2b subvariants in human genomic DNA was studied using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The respective genes differ in the coding sequence only at the position 137, adenine (2A) being substituted by guanine (2B). IFN-alpha 2-sequences were selectively amplified from the placental genomic DNA using specific primers. When sequencing the...
