                               Purpose: To construct a gene which will delete the first three                                       
                               amino acids of mature human gamma interferon. A synthetic linker                                     
                               for this purpose was constructed by Zippora Stabinsky,                                               

                               and that                                                                                             

                               The sequence of the linker is as follows:
                                                           
                               5' CTAGAAATGCAG
                                                                                     
                                              TTTACGTCCTAG 5',
                                                                     

                               and that                                                                                             

                               Z. Stabinsky provided 500 [illegible] of this linker                                                 
                               unphosphorilated [sic].
                                                                             

                       18.     Under the portion of the notebook page reading “Witnessed & Understood by                            
                               me”, no signature appears.  Moreover, we see no witnessing signature elsewhere                       
                               on the notebook page. Accordingly, it does not appear that the notebook page                         
                               was witnessed.                                                                                       
                       19.     As noted in Dr. Alton’s testimony (Exh. 1 at ¶ 5), the linker set forth on his                       
                               notebook page would encode Met (from the codon ATG) followed by Gln (from                            
                               the codon CAG).                                                                                      








                                                                     8
