The presence of interferon (IFN) receptors on mouse Friend leukemia cells (FLC) has been investigated in binding experiments with highly purified 125I-labeled mouse alpha/beta IFN. Both IFN-resistant clones and wild-type IFN-sensitive FLC showed a specific saturable binding site for mouse IFN with a similar affinity constant. In contrast to IFN-sensitive FLC, IFN-resistant FLC variants were not inducible by IFN for double-stranded RNA-dependent 2-5A synthetase activity.

D007370 Interferon Type I Interferon secreted by leukocytes, fibroblasts, or lymphoblasts in response to viruses or interferon inducers other than mitogens, antigens, or allo-antigens.

D011956 Receptors, Cell Surface Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.

D002999 Clone Cells A group of genetically identical cells all descended from a single common ancestral cell by mitosis in eukaryotes or by binary fission in prokaryotes. Clone cells also include populations of recombinant DNA molecules all carrying the same inserted sequence.

D005622 Friend murine leukemia virus A strain of Murine leukemia virus (LEUKEMIA VIRUS, MURINE) producing leukemia of the reticulum-cell type with massive infiltration of liver, spleen, and bone marrow. It infects DBA/2 and Swiss mice. Friend Virus,Rowson-Parr Virus,Rowson Parr Virus,Virus, Friend,Virus, Rowson-Parr
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D015088 2',5'-Oligoadenylate Synthetase An enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of ATP into a series of (2'-5') linked oligoadenylates and pyrophosphate in the presence of double-stranded RNA. These oligonucleotides activate an endoribonuclease (RNase L) which cleaves single-stranded RNA. Interferons can act as inducers of these reactions. 2',5'-Oligoadenylate Polymerase,2-5A Synthetase,(2'-5')An Polymerase,2',5'-Oligo(A) Polymerase,2',5'-Oligo(A) Synthetase,2,5 Oligoadenylate Polymerase,2,5 Oligoadenylate Synthetase,ATP-(2'-5')oligo(A)adenylyltransferase,2',5' Oligoadenylate Polymerase,2',5' Oligoadenylate Synthetase,Oligoadenylate Polymerase, 2,5,Oligoadenylate Synthetase, 2,5,Polymerase, 2',5'-Oligoadenylate,Polymerase, 2,5 Oligoadenylate,Synthetase, 2',5'-Oligoadenylate,Synthetase, 2,5 Oligoadenylate
D017471 Receptors, Interferon Specific molecular sites or structures on or in cells with which interferons react or to which they bind in order to modify the function of the cells. Interferons exert their pleiotropic effects through two different receptors. alpha- and beta-interferon crossreact with common receptors, while gamma-interferon initiates its biological effects through its own specific receptor system.
