ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to modified forms of IL-1.beta. with altered IL-1.beta. activity. The modified IL-1.beta. is the result of mutations which affect amino acids in the beta barrel portion of the IL-1.beta. structural formula. The invention also relates to expression systems that will produce the modified IL-1.beta. polypeptides, and methods of treating susceptible diseases with the modified IL-1.beta. polypeptides.
