ABSTRACT:
A protein designated p35 binds to a number of the chemotaxis-stimulating cytokines known as chemokines. p35 may be used to treat conditions that are mediated by chemokines, such as inflammation. p35 is a secreted protein that can be purified from the culture supernatant of cells infected with certain viruses, or produced using recombinant DNA techniques. Isolated DNA sequences encoding p35 are provided, along with expression vectors comprising the p35 DNA, and purified p35 protein.
