## Abstract NEIL2 (EC 4.2.99.18), a mammalian DNA glycosylase and ortholog of the bacterial Fpg/Nei, excises oxidized DNA lesions from bubble or single‐stranded structures, suggesting its involvement in transcription‐coupled DNA repair. Because base excision repair (BER) proteins act collectively a

We assayed fragments of the 5' flanking sequence of the human 2-5A synthetase gene for their ability to respond to interferon-cr (IFN) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). Transient transfection assays identified a 40-base pair fragment, which, regardless of orientation, could confer IFN-induc
Recent evidence suggests that the human interferon-inducible double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase may function as a tumor suppressor. Here we describe the mapping of the gene for this kinase to chromosome region 2p2 1-22 by fluorescence in situ hybridization. A combined analysis of cytogenet
The vaccinia virus complement control protein (VCP) is involved in modulating the host inflammatory response by blocking both pathways of complement activity through its ability to bind C3b and C4b. Other activities arise from VCP's ability to strongly bind heparin. To map regions within VCP involve
Placental chorionic somatomammotropin (hCS-A or B) and growth hormone variant (hGH-V) are members of the human growth hormone family, and are related by structure and function to pituitary growth hormone (hGH-N). However, while the hGH-N gene is expressed specifically in the anterior pituitary, hGH-
