Abstract
The coding sequences of the cDNAs of cloned human leukocyte interferon I and human fibroblast interferon show homologies of 45% at the nucleotide and 29% at the amino acid level. We conclude that the two genes were derived from a common ancestor.This publication has 26 references indexed in Scilit:
