Title:
METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS CONCERNING CANINE INTERLEUKIN 5
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001011049
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention provides for the isolation and characterization of canine interleukin-5 (IL-5) and nucleic acid and amino acid sequences of IL-5. More particularly, recombinant DNA molecules encoding for canine interleukin-5 and conservative variants are provided. In other aspects, the invention provides cells comprising the recombinant vectors, and methods for producing canine IL-5 comprising the steps of inserting a transcription regulatory sequence proximal to the IL-5 gene in a cell comprising that gene, and stimulating production of IL-5 through the regulatory sequence.
