title: Nucleotide sequence and expression of a cDNA encoding MyD88, a novel myeloid differentiation primary response gene induced by IL6.
abstract: We report here the full length cDNA sequence and the deduced amino-acid sequence of MyD88, a novel myeloid differentiation primary response gene activated in M1D+ myeloid precursors, following induction of terminal differentiation and growth arrest by IL6. Detectable levels of MyD88 RNA were observed in myeloid precursor enriched murine bone-marrow, but not in several other non-myeloid murine tissues.
