Abstract

Improved vectors and methods for regulating the expression in bacteria of a eucaryotic anti-viral protein, such as mature human immune interferon, the gene for which has been cloned onto a bacterial plasmid, is disclosed. The improved vectors incorporate and method utilizes transcriptional regulatory elements derived from bacteriophage lambda and ribosome binding sites either derived from bacteriophage lambda and/or synthesized chemically.
