摘要: A chromosomal fragmentation procedure was employed to produce a deletion set of yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) from parental YAC, GART D142H8, known map human chromosome 21q and encode the interferon-gamma receptor (Hu-IFN-gamma R) accessory factor gene as well phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase (GART) gene. When expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells, these deleted YACs retain activity, judged by major histocompatibility complex class I antigen inducibility, until deletions acentric end exceed 390 kilobases (kb). Therefore, (AF-1) can be localized 150-kb region at left (centric) 540-kb YAC. Cells containing functional are also able induce ISGF3 gamma gamma-activated (GAF) transcription factors, but were not protected against encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) upon treatment with Hu-IFN-gamma. Hu-IFN-gamma R AF-1 sufficient for some, all, actions We postulate that an additional (AF-2) required antiviral activity EMCV is encoded on 21q.
