| Popis: |
Human leukocyte and tritium-labeled fibroblast interferons, prepared by induction with Sendai virus and with double-stranded polyinosinic acid.polycytidylic acid respectively, have been studied in relation to the carbohydrate moieties attached to them. These interferons were partially purified by immunoabsorbance and by gel filtration. On treatment with glycosidases, about 80% of the 3H-labeled sugar moieties in this glycoprotein-containing fraction was removed without detectable alteration of the antiviral activity or antibody-binding properties characteristic of interferon. The molecular weight of leukocyte interferon was reduced by about 4000. As others have reported, the heterogeneous character of interferon revealed by isoelectric focusing was greatly reduced by the enzyme treatment. |
