Abstract excerpt
C57BL/6 mice are unable to express the Ifi 202 type genes upon injection in vivo of multiple dsRNA, poly rl:rC, or IFN-treatment in vitro. For this purpose the 5' terminal flanking region (called the b segment of 804 bp) was linked to a heterologous reporter gene chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT) and transfected into NIH3T3 cells or BLK cells derived from the C57BL/6 strain. IFN-alpha induced strong CAT...
