Cells of Escherichia coli containing a chemically synthesized human alpha 1 interferon (IFN-alpha 1) gene, under control of the lac promoter, make a product with biological properties indistinguishable from those of the natural IFN-alpha 1 [antiviral activity, acid stability, species crossreactivity, inactivation by antisera directed against leukocyte or Namalwa cell interferon, and stimulation of (2'-5')oligoadenylate synthetase activity]. Similar levels of IFN synthesis were obtained when the expression unit (lac promoter plus synthetic IFN-alpha 1 gene) was transplanted into the obligate methylotroph Methylophilus methylotrophus.
