Cloning of cDNA encoding the murine IgG1 induction factor by a novel strategy using SP6 promoter

Abstract

Complementary DNA encoding the IgG1 induction factor, the first lymphokine directed to B lymphocytes, from a murine T-cell line has been cloned using a new strategy. The putative primary amino-acid sequence was deduced from the nucleotide sequence determined. The lymphokine synthesized by the direction of this cloned cDNA has many other functions, such as production of B-cell growth factor-1 and induction of Ia on B cells.
