Background
Interferon alpha 2 is a type 1 interferon. Interferon alpha 2 is secreted by virus-infected cells and inhibits other cells from further infection. Recombinant human interferon alpha 2 has been approved for therapeutic application in a range of human oncological and viral diseases. Three Interferon alpha 2 subvariants (2A, 2B, 2C) differ by only one or two amino acids at positions 23 and/or 34 of the mature protein (PMID: 25982860; 10672347; 1694761).
Synonyms
IFN alpha 2, IFN alpha 2A, IFNA, IFNA2, INFA2, Interferon alpha 2, Interferon alpha A, interferon, alpha 2, LeIF A
