Abstract
Secretion of the cytokine interleukin-2 (IL-2) was investigated in Lactococcus lactis using the secretory machinery of the bacteriocin lactococcin A. Surprisingly, the lcnCD transport genes were not essential for mouse IL-2 secretion. Furthermore, expression of a mature mouse IL-2 gene resulted in interleukin secretion without the requirement for a leader sequence.Entities:
