Abstract

AIM: To obtain human and murine cDNAs encoding IFN-γ inducible protein 10 (IP-10) and cytokine responsive gene-2 (Crg-2).

METHODS: The encoding genes of IP-10 and Crg-2 were amplified by RT-PCR from cultured human fibroblast cells and Balb/c mouse liver treated by IFN-γ and TNF-α , respectively, and cloned into plasmids of pUC19 and pGEM3Zf(+).

RESULTS: The nucleotide sequences of the amplified DNA were confirmed by endonucleases digestion and sequencing.

CONCLUSION: Recombinant IP-10/crg-2 gene clones with 306 bp and 314 bp inserts were established for further research on biological activities and ligands of hIP-10/mCrg-2
