摘要 |
The present invention provides a novel isolated and purified protein that is produced by Aedes albopictus L4.4 cells, having a molecular weight of 55 kDa of SDS-PAGE, is associated with lysosomal membranes and induces an anti-viral state. This anti-viral state is characterized by a total block of virus RNA synthesis with no effect of cell macromolecular synthesis. Also provided are various methods of using this novel protein or the gene encoding this protein. |
