Identification of interferon-alpha 7, -alpha 14, and -alpha 21 variants in the genome of a large human population.

Journal of interferon & cytokine research : the official journal of the International Society for Interferon and Cytokine Research - 1 Oct 1996

Abstract excerpt

The genes for type I interferon (IFN), which include 14 IFN-alpha genes, 1 IFN-beta gene, 1 IFN-omega gene, and a number of IFN-omega pseudogenes, are clustered on human chromosome 9. Among IFN-alpha genes, a number of variants have been reported. Three variants of IFN-alpha 7 (IFN-alpha 7a, IFN-...
