Medicine | Protein hybrid formed by DNA techniques and consisting of two proteins linked together covalently. The fusion is accomplished at the gene level. It is normally used when the intention is to express a eucaryotic protein in a bacterial cell, since fusion proteins are generally more resistant to proteolytic degradation. Source: European Union.

Health | There are currently no agents available for blocking the action of IL-2. However, several anti-TNF agents have been developed, including a humanized murine monoclonal antibody to TNF alpha and a fusion protein of recombinant 75 kd receptor and the Fc portion of human IgG. These agents have failed to prove useful in sepsis resulting from microorganisms other than hantaviruses. (references) | |
