摘要
Several polyribonucleotides, both as single species and when annealed in pairs, are able to induce interferon production in mammalian cells and cellular resistance to virus infection. These studies suggest that a stable secondary, presumably multistranded structure is required for this activity. © 1969 Nature Publishing Group.
