Chemical-enzymatic synthesis and cloning in Escherichia coli of an artificial gene encoding the immunoactive peptide thymosin alpha 1 have been carried out. Recombinant plasmids were constructed which contain fusion genes coding for hybrids of human tumour necrosis factor (TNF) and thymosin alpha 1

To determine intracellular factors influencing the sensitivity of cancer cells to tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), we studied the expression of intracellular proteins in TNF-alpha-resistant cKDH-8/11 and -sensitive KDH-8/YK rat hepatoma cell lines using the technique of two-dimensional gel

An interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma)-inducing molecule (OK-PSA) has been purified from OK-432 by an affinity chromatographic technique performed on cyanogen bromide-activated Sepharose 4B-bound TS-2 monoclonal antibody, which neutralizes IFN-gamma-inducing activity of OK-432. OK-PSA has striking

An extracellular, acidic chitinase was purified to homogeneity from tobacco necrosis virus-infected leaves of Cucumis sativis. The amino acid sequences of the intact protein and of peptides isolated following endoproteinase Lys-C digestion, cyanogen bromide cleavage, and trypsin digestion were
