Abstract:

Interferon is a protein distinctly smaller than a virus and an antibody, produced by animal cells of different kinds, under the action of most of the living viruses or inactivated viruses, inhibiting most of the viruses by blocking the intracellular synthesis of viral nucleic acid in cells of the same kind but this cellular specificity is not absolute.
