Abstract excerpt

The three interferon-alpha2 (IFN-alpha2) sequences identified to date differ from each other in just two nucleotide positions, both of which result in changes in amino acids. Thus, the mature IFN-alpha2a protein product is characterized by a lysine residue at position 23 (AAA) and a histidine at...
