title: [Production of human recombinant beta-interferon in the avian cell culture].
abstract: The avian recombinant adenovirus of serotype 1 (CELO) was obtained. The recombinant adenovirus of serotype 1 (CELO) induces expression of human beta-interferon (IB). The expression cassette containing IB gene was placed at the right end of the CELO genome under control of hybrid promoter hEF-1alpha/HTLV. The resulting recombinant adenovirus CELO-IB transduced the avian cell culture LMH. The level of production of the recombinant IB was 0.15 micro/ml. The IB protein yield after affine chromatography purification using Ni-NTA agarose was 50%. The biological activity of the purified IB was high (7.8 x 10(8) MU/microg protein). The purified IB inhibited replication of murine encephalomyocarditis virus (VMEC) in cell culture of human diploid fibroblasts (HDF). Thus, expression system based on avian cell culture is an effective system for producing biologically active protein of human interferon beta.
