Abstract

We have cloned cDNA for T-cell replacing factor (interleukin-5), which replaces T-cell helper function for normal B cells which secrete immunoglobulin, from human T cell leukemia line, ATL-2, using mouse interleukin-5 cDNA as probe. Total nucleotide sequence of the cDNA (816 base pairs) was determined and compared with that of mouse interleukin-5 cDNA. The cloned cDNA encoded the interleukin-5 precursor of 134 amino acids containing an N-terminal signal sequence. Although the human interleukin-5 precursor is one amino acid longer than the murine homologue, the sizes of the mature proteins appear similar. The nucleotide and amino acid sequence homologies of the coding regions of human and murine interleukin-5 are 77% and 70%, respectively. Human interleukin-5 synthesized by the direction of the cloned cDNA induced immunoglobulin synthesis in human B cells stimulated by Staphylococcus aureus mitogen.

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.
