| abstract |
The invention relates to recombinant DNA molecules and to hosts transformed therewith which produce polypeptides having the activity of human lymphoblastoid interferon. The invention further relates to methods for producing these recombinant DNA molecules, these hosts and lymphoblastoid-interferon-like polypeptides. The polypeptides of the invention are useful as immunomodulators, especially as antiviral, anti-tumor and anti-cancer agents. |
