    Human interleukin-1 beta gene.

    Bensi G, Raugei G, Palla E, Carinci V, Tornese Buonamassa D, Melli M.

    We report the nucleotide sequence of the human chromosomal gene which encodes the interleukin-1 beta protein (IL-1 beta). The gene spans a region of 7.5 kb and the coding part is divided into seven exons. Comparison with the homologous mouse gene reveals that the structural organization is conserved through evolution. In addition to this, human and murine IL-1 beta genes show extensive sequence homology within the intervening sequences.
