abstractText | A cDNA encoding a marsupial interleukin-10 (IL-10), was isolated from Australian brushtail possum alveolar macrophages. The cDNA of 1604 bp had an open reading frame of 522 bp coding for a protein of 174 amino acids. Its deduced amino acid sequence had an identity of 60% with cat, 58% with pig, 56% with human and cow, 52% with mouse and 53% with rat IL-10. The expression of IL-10 was up-regulated in both LPS-stimulated and Mycobacterium bovis-infected possum alveolar macrophages. |
