ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to variants of recombinant human beta interferon and to a method for the production thereof, wherein at least one of the following amino acids Leu (5), Phe(8), Phe(15), Leu(47), Phe(50), Leu(106), Phe(111), Leu(116), Leu(120) and Phe(156) are exchanged with hydrophilic amino acid with a hydroxy group, specially serine, tyrosine or threonine, resulting in enhanced hydrophilic property of the protein surface.
