Abstract

ISGF-3 is an interferon-dependent positive-acting transcription factor that is cytoplasmically activated, possibly through direct interaction with the interferon receptor. The factor has been purified, its component proteins have been separated, and its peptide sequences have been obtained. From the sequences, degenerate oligonucleotide probes were constructed to screen for cDNA clones. Sequencing of the selected clones shows that the 91- and 84-kDa components represent two forms of a previously unknown (to our knowledge) protein. Several antibodies raised against these proteins prove that they indeed do encode protein components of ISGF-3. This work provides reagents to explore the modification of this cytoplasmically activated transcription factor.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
