Cell-free synthesis of human interferon

S Pestka et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1975 Oct.

Abstract

With mRNA prepared from induced human fibroblasts biologically active human interferon was synthesized de novo in a cell-free extract from mouse cells. The identity of the antiviral activity as human interferon was demonstrated by its species and antigenic specificity.
