A cDNA coding for human interleukin-2 (IL-2) has been cloned from a cDNA library prepared from partially purified IL-2 mRNA. The DNA sequence codes for a polypeptide which consists of 153 amino acids including a putative signal sequence. A biologically active polypeptide, characteristic of human IL-2, was produced when the cDNA was fused to a simian virus 40 promoter sequence and used to transfect cultured monkey COS cells.
已从由部分纯化的白细胞介素-2(IL-2)信使核糖核酸制备的互补脱氧核糖核酸(cDNA)文库中克隆出编码人白细胞介素-2的cDNA。该DNA序列编码一种由153个氨基酸组成的多肽,其中包括一个推定的信号序列。当该cDNA与猿猴病毒40启动子序列融合并用于转染培养的猴COS细胞时,产生了一种具有人IL-2特征的生物活性多肽。
