摘要
从人的胎脑cDNA文库中 ,克隆到一条全新的人类羧肽酶A抑制物基因 .此cDNA序列全长 10 49bp ,包括翻译起始位点附近的Kozak序列、6 6 9bp的开放读框以及 3′端的加尾信号 ,共编码 2 2 2个氨基酸 .它编码的蛋白与小鼠Latexin蛋白和大鼠Latexin蛋白分别有高达 85 %和 84%的同源性 ,因此命名为人类LATEXIN基因 .应用辐射杂交方法 ,将该基因定位在人 3号染色体 3q2 4区段 ,位于分子标记D3S16 0 5和D3S15 5 3之间 .采用基因芯片杂交的方法研究其在某些组织或细胞中的表达情况 ,发现在前列腺癌中表达量较高 .
A novel human carboxypeptidase A inhibitor gene was cloned from human fetal brain cDNA library. The 1 049 bp cDNA sequence spans an open reading frame of 669 bp, encoding a protein with 222 amino acids. The putative protein shows 85% and 84% identity to Latexin protein in mouse and rat respectively, so this gene was termed human LATEXIN gene in agreement with the HUGO Nomenclature Committee. By radiation hybrid mapping, the LATEXIN Gene was localized to human chromosome 3q24 between molecular markers D3S1605 and D3S1553. The relative tissue distribution of LATEXIN gene was determined by DNA microarray, from which a high signal was found in human prostate cancer.
