Molecular cloning and characterization of interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF-1), IRF-2 and IRF-5 in the chondrostean paddlefish Polyodon spathula and their phylogenetic importance in the Osteichthyes [PDF]
The interferon regulatory factor (IRF) with its 10 members is a very important gene family related to innate immunity. Currently, most fish IRFs reported are from bony fish (teleosts).

A Convenient Route to Monoalkyl-Substituted Phosphanylboranes (HRP–BH2–NMe3): Prospective Precursors to Poly[(alkylphosphino)boranes] [PDF]
A simple method to access borylphosphonium iodides [RH2P-BH2 center dot NMe3]I (1a: R = Me; 1b: R = Et; 1c: R = nPr) by the addition of iodoalkanes to PH2-BH2 center dot NMe3 was developed.

Sixty Years at the Rega Institute
I started my research career (in 1965) on interferon by identifying polyacrylic acid (PAA) as an interferon inducer. Poly(I).poly(C), discovered by Maurice Hilleman’s group, proved to be more potent as an interferon inducer, and through its mRNA, we were
