Abstract

Human DNA encoding enzymes having (2'-5') oligo A synthetase has been sequenced. The amino acid sequences of the enzymes have been deduced. Antigenic peptides have been prepared and have been used to raise antibodies which recognize and immunoprecipitate the 40 kd, 46 kd, 67 kd and 100 kd forms of (2'-5') oligo A synthetase. Methods of monitoring interferon activity in a subject are presented.
