ABSTRACT:
Complementary DNAs (cDNAs) encoding inducible nitric oxide synthase are isolated and purified from a cDNA library prepared from macrophage-like cells activated with interferon gamma and bacterial lipopolysaccharide. The full length cDNAs of at least two isoforms of the enzyme are identified and sequenced.
