Summary for Patent: 5,236,829
Title: | Method of producing monokine induced by gamma interferon |
Abstract: | Monokines are provided which are produced by monocytic cells of mammals which have been stimulated with interferon-.gamma.. cDNA sequences encoding the monokines are also disclosed. Methods of producing the mammalian monokines are taught. The monokines are implicated in immunological and inflammatory processes, as are other members of the platelet factor 4 family of cytokines. |
Inventor(s): | Farber; Joshua (Baltimore, MD) |
Assignee: | The Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore, MD) |
Application Number: | 07/624,742 |
Patent Claims: | 1. An intron-free DNA molecule encoding a mammalian MIG protein which has the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 or 4.
2. The intron-free DNA molecule of claim 1 which encodes a protein having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 3. 3. The intron-free DNA molecule of claim 1 which is derived from a mouse. 4. The intron-free DNA molecule of claim 2 which is derived from a mouse. 5. The intron-free DNA molecule of claim 1 which is derived from a human. 6. The intron-free DNA molecule of claim 2 which is derived from a human. 7. A host cell which comprises a DNA molecule of claim 1 which has the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 or 4. 8. A host cell which comprises a DNA molecule of claim 2 which encodes a protein having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 3. 9. A method of producing a mammalian MIG protein, comprising the steps of: providing a host cell comprising the DNA molecule of claim 1; culturing the host cell in a nutrient medium so that the mammalian MIG protein is secreted into the medium; and harvesting the mammalian MIG protein from the nutrient medium. 10. The method of claim 9 in which the DNA molecule encodes a protein having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 3. 11. The method of claim 9 wherein the host cell comprises an intron-free DNA molecule which has the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 or 4. 12. The method of claim 9 wherein the host cell comprises an intron-free DNA molecule which encodes a protein having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 3. |
