Abstract:
An interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) mutant gene harboring an additional epidermal growth factor (EGF) sequence at its 3' terminal was constructed and highly expressed in E. coli by using pBV220 as a vector. The new fusion protein-IFN-gamma-EGF possesses not only high antiviral activity, but also high antiproliferative effect as demonstrated by 3H-TdR incorporation method using CN II cells which are rich in EGF receptors.
