Recently we have purified to homogeneity and characterized an interferon-induced human protein (p78 protein) which is the equivalent of the interferon-induced murine Mx protein responsible for a specific antiviral state against influenza virus infection. A cDNA library was constructed using mRNAs from interferon-induced human diploid fibroblasts. cDNA clones coding for the human p78 protein were identified and used to determine the chromosomal location of the corresponding gene (termedIFI-78K…
